Spring Comets - After School Club

Spring Common Academy noticed a gap for our students for after school activities. So we decided that our students need a safe, relaxed but secure environment for them to enjoy activities with their friends. We welcome pupils from aged 8.

We have been successfully running the After School Club (Spring Comets) since January 2010 and have received consistently good reviews: 

My son "enjoys After School Club very much...he is non-verbal, he makes it clear to me that he is excited to go." Parent

"It is very fun as I get to play with my friends." Pupil

We believe children should feel relaxed and comfortable as they would at home. We don’t have lots of rules, instead we encourage the children to respect and support each other. This builds a wonderful environment for the children and we see confidence grow as a result.

We offer a wide selection of play activities, from sport to cooking; water play, sensory messy play to playing in the ball pool. We encourage the children to make their own selections, discuss ideas for activities and try something new!

We also have a Summer Club for pupils who access the After School Club. It typically runs during the first 4-5 days of the school holidays and also gets positive feedback. 

"My child enjoys attending Summer Club - it gives her the chance to socialise with her peers." Parent

"I love it that it is run by people that know my child. I trust them." Parent

The Spring Comets will be subject to Ofsted standards and as a school club, has public liability insurance with Cambridgeshire County Council.
