Après-School to provide after school care at King’s House from September 2024

King’s House is delighted to be partnering with Après-School from September 2024 to provide after school care. Après-School are an Ofsted-registered specialist wraparound care provider and have many years’ experience creating a safe and nurturing environment for children beyond the school day. Children in the Nursery (Squirrels/Rabbits Class) will also be able to stay on in after school care (ASC), and the provision has been extended until 6pm.

Après-School was founded by Luke Currie, a former Assistant Headteacher and Safeguarding Lead at a London prep school. The day-to-day running of ASC will be overseen by Miss Lindsay, the dedicated ASC Manager. She brings extensive experience in childcare and a passion for creating enriching after-school experiences. Parents can contact her directly at lindsay@apres-school.co.uk. For general inquiries or to discuss program specifics, Mr Currie is available at luke@apresschool.co.uk.

Children in Squirrels/Rabbits will be walked from Nursery to the Junior Department for ASC at 3pm, with age-appropriate resources for them. Activities will be planned for children of all ages, including arts & crafts, sport and outdoor play, construction, and board games.

The staff ratio will be 1:8 for Nursery children and 1:10 for children of school age. Children will all be provided with healthy snacks, often including fresh fruit, sandwiches, and raisins.

We are excited to be working with Après-School in coming months to provide an enriching and exciting after-school care programme, catering to the needs of busy family life, providing high-quality and more affordable wraparound care.
