Holiday HQ Camps run in every school holiday at St Wilfrid's and all primary school aged children are welcome to attend.

Children benefit from a safe and familiar school setting, helping them settle quickly into their surroundings and chosen activity.

We run our indoor sessions from the School Hall, Rainbow room and Gallelli room.

The dedicated spaces allow us to lead large or smaller group sessions, whatever the weather.

We set up a dining area in the hall, enabling the children to all eat together sociably.

Rise Then Shine Breakfast Club

Our morning programmes are now called ‘Rise Then Shine’, the perfect start to your child’s school day!
We set the tone for a great day at school through an array of energising activities and some delicious and nutritious food.
From delightful breakfast moments, to calming morning meditations, we ensure they step into school ready to embrace the day!

 

Breakfast Club – A Typical Morning
• Drop off anytime from 7am at the main school entrance at St Wilfrid’s Catholic Primary
• Breakfast is served between 7am – 8am.
• A selection of cereals, crumpets, toast and fresh fruit is available.
• NB: We can cater for all dietary requirements.
• Engaging activities ready for the school day ahead, whether that’s burning off some energy or engaging in some mindful activities – it’s all part of the fun!
• We handover the children in time for the start of school.

Stay and Play After School Club

The fun continues after school at our ‘Stay and Play’ afternoon programmes. Children can dive into more fun activities, building lasting friendships and creating memories beyond the classroom, all before heading home for quality family time.

 

All children have a freshly prepared High Tea together – a real social highlight of every afternoon.

Meet The St Wilfrid’s Club Manager

Bridget

Club Manager

Hello, my name is Bridget and I am the Club Manager at our St Wilfrid’s Breakfast and After School Club. Prior to joining the team I worked in a school as a Teaching Assistant. I then worked as a senior activity leader at our Manor Field Club, before becoming Club Manager at Burgess Hill Pioneer Club.

During my time at Pioneer Childcare, I have received training and hold certificates in First Aid, Food Hygiene and Safeguarding.

My favourite activity to run at club is anything creative like arts and crafts. I love to see the children’s own interpretation of the art work and how proud they are of their own creations. I enjoy the messy side, you can’t beat a bit of glitter and paint.

Bridget St Wilfrid's Club Manager

If you would like to discuss anything club-related, please call 07719535233 during club opening hours, and I will be happy to talk to you.

Our activities

Our activities:

  • Seven fun-filled adventure categories, designed for all ages and interests.
  • Promotes fun, curiosity and mindfulness in an entertaining and welcoming environment.
  • Create lifelong friendships over exciting adventures beyond the classroom.
  • Children choose how to spend their mornings and afternoons.

“Children enjoy a variety of well-planned activities. They choose between working with friends to build with construction bricks and drawing and cutting at the craft table. Staff sit alongside children, giving them gentle encouragement and praise for trying to do things for themselves."

Tina Lambert, Ofsted Inspector
Stanford Club, February 2023

“All children benefit from the social interactions between different age groups. Children who are new to the infant school and older children in the junior school play collaboratively together. For instance, they sit and do puzzles together and invite one another to join in group games. This supports older children to take responsibility and assists younger children in their confidence and self-esteem."

Tina Lambert, Ofsted Inspector
Stanford Club, February 2023

“Staff conscientiously get to know the children that they care for. They sit alongside the children and ask them about the activities that they have been doing at school. Children and staff have strong bonds, which enables children to talk freely about things that interest them. As a result, children feel valued and listened to."
