| Bertie Bamford Club
The first real contact your child will have with school will be through our ‘Bertie Bamford Club’. For the Summer Term preceding entry a pre-school group meets one afternoon alternate weeks from 1.30 pm until 3.15 PM
Our aim is to ease children’s transition from home to school and to create an opportunity for their parents to meet the staff (and each other), whilst participating in the children’s activities. The children themselves, whilst taking part in some enjoyable activities, will also make new friends and meet their future teacher.
Berties Before and After School Club
Berties Before and After School Club is held in the hall from 7.55 AM - 8.55 AM and from 3.35 PM - 5.30 PM in the hall, library and music room. This is only for Bamford School children and is supervised by staff employed by the school for the specific purpose. A charge is made for this facility which we hope is of service to our many working parents.
A light breakfast is provided for Berties Before School Club and a snack tea for Berties After School Club.
Further details are available from the school office or by contacting the Club Leader Mrs. Pam Heywood. C/o of the school.
