“Children are happy to attend this inviting and friendly club. They form close and trusting relationships with staff, who get to know them and their families well. Staff are organised and gently guide children through the structure of the day. They provide children with a good balance of adult-led activities and children’s ‘choice time’. This helps children to play freely and explore their interests. Staff set age appropriate rules and expectations, which support children’s good behaviour and promotes their safety. At the start of the day, children come together to discuss the club rules and share these with children who are new to the club. Children understand why rules are in place. For example, staff talk to them about the importance of not sharing foods in their lunch boxes because they may contain foods which some children may be allergic to.”
