Early Bird Club
The role of our Early Bird Club is to offer a “holistic” service with a person-centred ethos in a safe environment. Our mains aims and priorities are to:-
- Provide a healthy breakfast for the children in the scheme, to promote a good start to the day, which improves concentration and learning in class.
- Assist in providing and supervising safe play activities for the children
- Build self-esteem and confidence of children attending the club, by helping to develop relationships, both with peers and adults in an informal “family” environment.
- Support parents who may wish to return to work or provide more flexibility in working hours for parents
When does the Early Bird Club run?
The Early Bird club runs Monday to Friday from 8.00am until 8.40am (except on Inset days when the club is closed).
Children must arrive by 8.20am.
What does it offer?
We offer child supervision and a breakfast of fruit juice, milk or water, cereal or toast and jam, and fresh fruit, to meets the Governments compulsory nutritional standards for schools. Facilities for cleaning teeth are available if required.
Who can attend?
The Early Bird Club is open to children attending both Orchard Infant and Junior Schools. Children attending from the Junior School will be escorted to the Junior School at the start of the school day. Children starting school in Year R must be attending school full-time and have settled in well before they can start attending.

No refunds/credits will be given for your child if they do not attend due to sickness or any other reason.
