After School Club

The After School Club was set up in order to prevent Deaf children and young people experiencing acute social and cultural isolation. 

This is a unique and highly valued service that allows Deaf children to come together in an environment where their communication code is respected and supported, the danger of isolation is overcome and their personal development issues are addressed and advanced.

The After School Club runs term time from 2:30pm – 6:00pm

 

We provide a happy, safe, stimulating environment that will allow your child to develop and have fun whilst at our club.  Children are provided with tea every evening (see menus) Drinks and fresh fruit are also provided throughout their time at the After School Club.  Our minibus picks up from Knotty Ash Primary School and Broadgreen High School.

And much, much more….

We like to take the children into different surroundings through the week so they can mix with other children.  This is achieved by involving them in dance classes at Notre Dame School, Trampolining at Norris Green Sports Centre, Climbing at Awesome Walls climbing centre, in the hope of gaining a certificate.  We hope to get the children to learn gymnastics at a graded level as well.
