    FUN KIDS CLUB

    Dunmore's Breakfast and After School Club, known as 'Fun Kid's Club' (FKC), is our very popular childcare service available for pupils who attend Dunmore School (including nursery pupils) during school term time. Unfortunately, children who are not fully toilet-trained (still wearing nappies/pulls up, or having regular 'accidents' that require them to be changed) are not normally able to attend FKC, unless the circumstances are exceptional.

    If you would like your child to start attending FKC, please complete and return a registration form. You can find one at the bottom of this page, or you can pick one up from the School Office. Please note that sessions should be booked (or cancelled) at least 8 days in advance to allow time to organise staffing.

    The club provides children with flexible opportunities to play, to join in activities and to relax in a safe and friendly environment. The emphasis is on leisure activities rather than an extension of the normal school day. The club is managed by Nicola Dixey and a team of staff, some of whom also work in the school.

    The session times and charges are:

    Breakfast Club :

    7.45am until the start of school - (with breakfast) £5.30

    8.15am until the start of school - £2.65

    After-School Club :

    End of school until 4.30pm - £6.60 (Full price for 1st child, then £5.60 for other siblings attending the same session)

    End of school until 5.45pm - £10.60 (Full price for 1st child, then £9.60 for other siblings attending the same session)

    Please note that we are not able to cancel or swap sessions if your child is unable to attend for any reason at less than 8 days’ notice, unless the circumstances are exceptional.  

    A fee of £6.00, for every 15 minutes you are late picking up your child, will be charged. If you have an emergency and are going to be late, you must let us know.

     

    Parents can pay for sessions using childcare vouchers, or the government Tax Free Scheme.  If you would like more information about this please contact - Tina Law.  Unfortunately, we are not able to offer stage payments or credit.

     

    Late Booking facility

    We offer a 'late booking' facility if you occasionally forget to book, or have a last-minute requirement.  However, we cannot guarantee there will always be space. This does not apply to late cancellations, which need to be done at least 8 days in advance (unless the circumstances are exceptional). Please note that this is only available to parents/carers whose children already attend FKC, and is allocated on a 'first come, first served' basis. To request sessions, please email Tina Law, up to 2pm the day before the day you need it. All late sessions must be paid within 2 days of booking.

    If children arrive at a session they are not booked into, an extra 50% charge will be added.

     

     

    HOLIDAY CLUBS

    FKC often runs holiday activity weeks over the Easter and Summer Holidays, but this is subject to confirmation each year.  Information about this is sent out to parents/carers via Parentmail.  Unfortunately, we are not able to offer holiday clubs to nursery children as some activities take place off-site.   In addition, the Summer Club is not available to Year 6 pupils who will have left Dunmore School on the last day of the summer term.

    Holiday Club charges are:

    Full day (8.30am - 5.30pm) £35.00

    Half day (8.30am - 1.00pm or 1.00pm - 5.30pm) £20.00

     

    TUCASI SCOPAY ONLINE PAYMENT AND BOOKING FACILITY

    Parents/Carers use our online self-booking system 'Scopay' (https://www.scopay.com/login)to book sessions for FKC Holiday Clubs.  If your child has not attended the club before, you will need to contact us for an individual online code so you can link them to your Scopay account. account. 

    You will also need to complete the registration form, which can be found below, at the school reception, or we can email you a copy.  You must complete and return the registration form before your child attends FKC for the first time.

    If you would like your child to start using FKC, or you have any queries, please contact Tina Law.
