Afterschool Club

Age Range: 5-12 years

Staff Ratio: 1:11

School age children are provided with a safe and stimulating environment with appropriate adult supervision and facilitation during non school hours.

Participants and carers form meaningful relationships in a caring and home like environment where every child feels affirmed in their settings and has a valuable contribution to make to the group. Children develop by balancing freedom with responsibility.

Afterschool group starts at 1:30 pm and children may stay up to 6:00 pm.

Benefits from our programme include:

  • Collection by bus from local schools in Nenagh town.

  • Supervision of written homework.

  • Self directed play.

  • Opportunities to improve interpersonal and social skills.

  • Structured and self directed outdoor play.

  • Hot, healthy nutritional meals are provided.

  • All children’s dietary needs are catered for.

During school holidays camps are arranged for school age children, where a broad range of interests are catered for. The most popular include soccer, obstacle courses, camp fire fun, bus tours, water balloon and bottles and art & crafts. We also acknowledge and provide time for self directed play, socialising spending time with friends and fun.

We aim to support the children in finding their own voice while developing empathy for the views of others so that each child feels supported and cherished as a person.
