The Craylands School Wraparound Care 

The Den 

Wraparound Care at The Craylands School 

Starting in the Academic Year, The Craylands School is excited to launch our new wraparound care service, known as The Den. This provision is designed to support working parents and carers by offering a safe, secure and nurturing environment for children before and after the school day. 

Aims of The Den 

Welcoming Environment: We strive to create a happy, safe and secure space for pupils at the beginning and end of the school day. 
Support for Working Parents/Carers: The Den provides an early drop-off childcare facility and after-school care to accommodate the needs of busy families. 
Nutritious Start: Our Breakfast Club offers children a healthy and nutritious breakfast in a relaxed environment to kickstart their day. 

Operating Hours 

Breakfast Club - Opens 7:30 am 

Our Breakfast Club runs from 7:30 a.m. until the start of the school day at 8:30 a.m. It will be staffed according to appropriate staff : pupil ratios to ensure the best care and supervision. 

After School Club - Closes 5:00 pm 

Our After School Club operates from the end of the school day until 5:00 p.m., also staffed in line with staff : pupil ratios to maintain a safe and enjoyable experience for all children. 

Registration and Booking 

Before your child can attend The Den, whether for Breakfast Club or After School Club, parents and carers must sign the Parent/Carer Agreement. A completed agreement form is required for admission. 
 
We encourage parents to book places in advance, but we also offer ‘ad hoc’ spaces on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to availability.
