Wraparound Care at Bellefield

Breakfast Club

Breakfast Club runs daily from 8:00am to the start of the school day and is an exciting place to join your friends before school for a healthy breakfast, to play games or complete your homework before the school day starts.

Exciting news, we will be increasing our breakfast club provision and after Easter 2025 will be allowing parents to book their breakfast club slots online using our new system, Arbor. This will be open to all parents so if you haven’t used Breakfast club before, this will be open for you after Easter. After Easter, simply log onto your Arbor Parent Portal and add the slots you would like your child to attend.

Paying for Wraparound Care using Tax-Free Childcare

All parents are able to pay for both breakfast club and after school care using the Governments Tax-Free Childcare scheme. By using Tax-Free Childcare for every £8 you pay into this account, the government will pay in £2, you can then use this balance to pay for the cost of wraparound care as well as Nursery and childminder fees for other children. If you would like to learn more and sign yourself up, more information can be found here - Tax Free Childcare Info.

If you look into this and decide to sign up to the scheme please can we ask that you inform us of this decision and also email whenever a payment has been made? Please email finance@bellefield.equamead.org with a quick email informing us of the amount paid out to Bellefield and the date or supply a screen-shot of the payment out.
