For most families, the most difficult childcare to arrange is that which covers the times when parents have to be at work but school is closed.
Busy Bees Out of School and Holiday Clubs provide a vital service for when school's out but work is still in.
Before and After School Centres
Before and After School Centres open for a breakfast club giving parents time to drop their children off and still make it to work on time, and close early evening*, allowing parents to work a full day.
There are lots of activities for the children to enjoy.
Children are accompanied to and from local schools**, ensuring that children get to school and back again safely and on time.
Children can attend either before school, after school or both, depending on their requirements and the policy of the individual centre.
The Hive - Holiday Club
Holiday Clubs provide more extensive activities and are open for children aged 4 to 11 in all the main school holidays including half terms†.
The Clubs are divided into two age groups. Bees Knees for children aged 4 to 7 years and Bee Zone for children aged 8 to 11 years. This enables children to participate in age appropriate activities but will also benefit from interaction at certain times of the day.
The clubs are open from early morning to early evening*, giving a whole day of fun indoors and outdoors as appropriate .
Trips to local attractions are often undertaken, for which transport is provided, with an occasional extra charge for some visits.
Holiday Clubs enable parents to carry on working safe in the knowledge that their children are well cared for, and give children a great opportunity to explore learn and have fun in a supportive, relaxed and happy environment.
Never again need the long summer holidays be "BORING!!!!"
