AFTER SCHOOL
Our After School first opened in September 2019 and we are thrilled to say that it was a huge success. We take care of children from Junior Infants to 6th Class, offering a walking pick up service from Taney National School and St. Olaf’s National School.
The Little School provides a home-away-from-home after school service in which children can relax in a safe and secure environment. They are provided with meals and snacks cooked on the premises with fresh seasonal ingredients. Children will sit down to a snack on arrival at afterschool, before supervised homework begins.
After homework, a series of activities will be on offer each day including arts and crafts, games and stories and outdoor play. Our after school runs until 6pm each day along the school calendar. We are closed for midterms and school holidays however families will have access to our Nature camps
Our after school service runs until 6pm each day. We run from September - June with breaks at Christmas, Easter and Mid Terms. We run camps during school holidays and families will be able to book these with us.
We currently offer walking pick ups from Taney National School and St. Olaf's National School. Children can attend 5, 4 or 3 afternoons per week depending on availability.
