Highfields offers both before and after school care for those children whose parents require an extended day. These facilities are run by fully qualified members of staff and offer a safe and caring environment for children outside of normal School hours.

In addition to after school care, the School runs a Before School Club from 8.00am to 8.30pm which is supervised by Miss Crocker and Mrs Ward. Parents are requested to contact the School Office if they wish to make use of this facility.Cost per session is £2.30
After School Club
Highfields After School Club (ASC) is open to all children attending Highfields, to provide safe and enjoyable care for those children whose parents are unable to meet them at the end of the school day.The club is based in the Main School building which is where everyone registers at the start of each session. Puzzles, board games and simple crafts are on offer. We also provide areas for quiet reading, homework and occasional use of the TV, a music room, the Sports Hall and, during fine weather, the sports fields. The wide range of facilities available enable us to participate in a variety of activities.The aim is to secure a safe, happy, caring environment where children can pursue interests and enthusiasms in a relaxed yet disciplined atmosphere.
After School Club is staffed by a qualified teacher or NVQ Level 3 practitioner and their team. We work on a basis of no more than eight children to each supervisor.There is no extra charge for the light tea during these sessions which is provided to sustain the children until they go home.
