Breakfast Club

Afterschool Club

We are open Monday to Friday during term time, excluding Inset days from 3.10pm to 6.00pm. Children can be picked up at any time between these times.

At St Nicolas’ we aim to offer extra opportunities to the children in a friendly club, offering them a variety of different experiences. We welcome all children and pride ourselves on providing a safe and stimulating environment for the children. Our clubs will be an environment similar to that of a home breakfast and snack time, where the children are encouraged to interact with and develop friendships between different age groups, while having fun and enjoying a range of activities.

St Nicolas' School uses School Gateway, the UK’s best parent engagement software, to manage parent sessions for the Busy Bunch club. 

All busy bunch related communication, club bookings, and payments go through School Gateway – it is the central hub of information for our parents – so to stay up to date with what’s going on in the Busy Bunch Club, make sure you download the app for free. Just search for School Gateway in your App store and download. Simple.
