Extended Care is an additional programme offered to families who would prefer their younger children to wait at school until older siblings are finished with their classes at 2.20pm.
Being an extension of the school day, the same approach to learning and relating applies. The atmosphere is nurturing, the teachers are relationally present and living ideas are brought forward through exploration and play. One can expect time for outdoor play, quiet rest and peaceful activities.
There are four termly options depending on how many days a week you wish to make use of:
- 1 afternoon a week: R530 per term
- 2 afternoons a week: R1 045 per term
- 3 afternoons a week: R1 575 per term
- 4 afternoons a week: R2 095 per term
There is no Extended Care on Fridays as school finishes at 1pm.
If a child is absent, or a public holiday falls on a booked day, the day is forfeited and will not be reimbursed or exchanged for another day.
Ad-hoc Bookings:
Should you wish to make use of ad hoc days during the term, there is a flat rate of R75 per day, payable via SnapScan or by EFT. The full fee applies regardless of the amount of time spent in Extended Care.
Children will be granted admittance depending on the amount of children booked in for the requested day, and therefore, will not be guaranteed a space.
Commitment:
By committing to a termly booking, you are responsible to pay the full term fee regardless of absence or cancellation ie. should you book for the whole term but wish to cancel midterm, you would still be liable to pay for the whole term. Termly bookings are to be made prior to the start of the term.
Should you fail to fetch your child timeously at 2.20pm after Extended Care, an additional levy of R30 per 15 minutes you are late will be charged.
