What do Extended Services mean for you and your school?

• More activities for young people.
• More options for parents and children in times of need.
• Opportunities for parents and children to learn together.
• Greater access for parents and children to voluntary and community groups.
• Information about access to activities for your child in term time (breakfast clubs and after school activities) and holiday activity schemes.
•  
• The schools in the cluster run many  holiday and after school activities for pupils, Family Dance, Zumba  and other Family Learning activities . If you would like us to let you know when we are running particular activities next year, please email  me.
• If you are looking for support with parenting please contact me or talk to staff in your schools. Children don’t come with instructions and there is support available for parents of children of all ages.
• There are lots of free or cheap activities for children, young people and families to enjoy after school and in the holidays. Please click on the latest newsletter to view the information on what to do in Battersea or visit the Family Information Service Website http://wandsworth.childrensservicedirectory.org.uk  for more detailed information on activities across Wandsworth. “
