We run age- appropriate activities each session that the children can join in with, or free play where children are able to use a variety of engaging toys, outdoor space and play equipment.
You will be able to request any sessions you need once registration is open- Registration forms will be processed in the order that they were received, and sessions allocated as such.
You will be contacted once your form has been processed- please allow up to 7 days for your form to be processed. We will then confirm if we are able to accommodate your session requests, or if you have been added to the waitlist. (Waitlists do tend to have quite a bit of movement over the summer, so if you have been given a waitlist position, it is likely that the position will change quite a bit over the summer period, and sessions may become available before the start of the school year).
When requesting sessions, the sessions are given for the entire school year- you do not need to re-apply each term. There is a three week notice period for permanent cancellations.
Settling in sessions-
We will also offer “daycare” sessions during the first few weeks of term- when the children are having their settling in sessions at school (attending school for the morning or afternoon)
The children will be able to choose from a range of interesting and fun activities while being cared for by experienced, skilled and qualified staff.
These sessions are designed to cover the key hours of a school day- 9am-3pm so will be in addition to any confirmed breakfast or afterschool sessions. As such, Children may also use any Breakfast Club (7.45-9) After School Club (3pm-6pm), if they have a confirmed session.
The cost of a session is just £12.50 (half) and £25.00 (full). This includes a healthy snack and drink but children will need to bring a packed lunch.
A member of AGOSC staff will escort children to/from their classrooms at the beginning/end of the session.
You will be able to book these sessions yourself via our online platform once your registration form has been processed.
Holiday club-
We are open for holiday playscheme during the summer holidays-
These sessions are open to 4years+ and are a great way to settle in and meet new people. Snacks are provided, but children will need a packed lunch.

You will be able to book these sessions yourself via our online platform once your registration form has been processed.

Help with Childcare Costs
We understand that in these challenging times, childcare costs can seem like another huge expense that stretches already tight budgets. To help, we would like to point you in the direction of The Daycare Trust’s website and, in particular their Paying for Childcare page. There is information and guidance for working parents, parents who are studying and also a Tax Credit checker so that you can find out what you are eligible for.
AGOSC is registered with Ofsted so our fees are eligible for Working Tax Credits. We also accept many voucher payments and are happy to register with others where possible. There are some relevant and useful information leaflets below but if you have any questions about this or would like some further information please feel free to ask us.
