Children are taken by our playworkers to their classroom for the start of the school day at 8.55am.
AFTER SCHOOL CLUB is available to all children who attend Telford Infant School and is held on our school site.
Infant children are collected from their classrooms by our playworkers and escorted to the hall, where SMILES is based.
Part of the session is also spent out on the playground (or field in the summer) weather permitting.
A range of adult led activities are offered including craft and team games. Children also have lots of different toys to play with including small world, construction and role play.
Children are provided with a cold, nutritious snack. This varies throughout the week but usually consists of wraps or bread with some type of meat (or vegetarian/vegan equivalent), cheese and a range of fresh fruits and salad. This is purely a snack and is not intended to replace an evening meal at home.
We are a nut free school, and children with allergies, intolerances and lifestyle or religious choices are catered for.
