Hours of operation:

 Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 

 

Start time: drop off any time after 7am, to the school
                    hall (ring the door bell for entry)

 

Where Does BSC Operate From:

It operates from the school hall.  Children are dropped off by parents, entering through the front door of the school hall.  Parents are to sign your child/ren in at the front table in the attendance register.  Please always ensure an educator knows you have arrived to drop off.

 

Children leave their bags at the front of the hall  say good-bye (hopefully mum or dad have got time to get a coffee before the train!) and head off to have some breakfast  (cereal, toast, yoghurt, fruit).!

 

What We Do:

Children have breakfast upon arrival and then can play a quiet game, complete any homework and relax before school.  We have intentionally NOT scheduled too many activities as we do not want children tired before they get to class.  We also acknowledge that some children take time to 'warm up' in the mornings.  

 

However some activities will be available - drawing, simple craft, ball games, board games etc.

 

We have an early drop off and a SHORT STAY session.  Children who come from 7am will have more time to have breakfast and complete activities and are therefore charged a higher fee.  Those who arrive from 8.15am have reduced time for activities so are charged a lower rate.  Please refer to the fees schedule.

 

What To Bring:

Children bring their school bags and anything else they need for the school day (their lunches, homework etc) 

We also ask that your child brings a toothbrush and toothpaste (spares will be provided if necessary)

​

Transfer of my Child/ren To School's Care:

At first bell (8.50 am) children will be taken up stairs or for older children, sent up to their class rooms with the rest of their class mates.
