Aftercare

The aim of the Kirstenhof Primary School Aftercare is to provide a safe, nurturing, fun and structured atmosphere for a limited number of children in our care. Our Aftercare staff members have many years of experience in aftercare supervision.

THE ENROLMENT PROCESS

Parents can contact Ms Lorraine Brown at our Aftercare Centre via email: aftercare@kirstenhofprimary.co.za to enquire about availability. Space is limited to ensure adequately supervised care.
We have set rules which we insist on being adhered to for the safety and security of your child as well as the smooth running of the aftercare.

DAILY PROGRAM

We keep a register upon arrival of the children. They either go off to sport or homework is completed. Thereafter, free play indoors or out will be the child’s own choice, under the watchful eye of our staff, who are stationed in and outside during the entire afternoon.

Children to bring own food/snacks and drinks. 

We have books, puzzles, Lego, colouring books, board games etc. for indoor play, bat and ball games etc for outside play. We also have a television and Friday’s is movie day, plus on those wet, cold days when the children are unable to play outside.

Completion of homework is compulsory for grades 1 – 7 and monitored on a daily basis in a separate classroom and is fully supervised from 1.15 – 5.30pm

Our aftercare staff assist the children in getting to their respective extra-mural activities in the afternoon.
