Questions, answered

Good to know.

Do you collect children from local schools?
Get in touch about your child's school — we cover several primaries near Silverthorne Lane and can talk through collection arrangements on a case-by-case basis.
What are your opening hours?
AMSA Kids Club runs Monday to Friday during term time, from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. Holiday-club dates are announced separately each term.
What does a typical afternoon look like?
Arrival & snack → homework / quiet reading → structured activity (crafts, themed project, or skill) → active play & games → wind-down and collection.
Can I use Tax-Free Childcare or Universal Credit?
Yes. We're registered for both Tax-Free Childcare and the childcare element of Universal Credit. We'll provide everything you need for your claim.
What ages do you take?
Children from 5 to 14. We group activities by age and stage so the five-year-olds and the near-teens both get the right level of challenge.
