About Clubland at Thames Ditton Infant School
Our Breakfast and Afterschool club is available to all children from reception to Year 2. Thames Ditton is our flagship setting which we opened in 1996. The setting has gone from strength to strength and is managed by Carrie, Supported by her Deputy Trina and a team of dedicated Playworkers.
The club is based within the school hall and Garden Room, and staff arrange the furniture and equipment to maximize the space and create an engaging play environment. Equipment is freely accessed, and children can adapt the layout for their play needs. The Hall leads directly onto the playground and we make full use the newly constructed climbing wall, slide and environmental area as well as the astrofield, Trim Trail and Pirate Ship to the front of the school.
Staff encourage the children to be creative both inside and out, testing their skills and knowledge of the world by building dens and encouraging other physical and cognitive activities. As well as free play, a daily adult led activity is provided which may be a cooking, craft, quizzes, or a sports activity.
