Out of School Club
Our Out of School Club meets in the halls of Killermont Church in Rannoch Drive in Bearsden and provides care for up to 40 children each day. Staff collect children from Killermont Primary School at 3pm each day and the club is open until 6pm. On most school holidays and in-service days, (with the exception of public holidays), the club is open from 8.45am - 6pm. Children from other schools are also welcome to attend, although we cannot collect them from school.
Sometimes there is insufficient demand for the club during some holidays, however, a full and comprehensive consultation with parents is carried out before a decision to close the club is taken.
The children are actively involved in much of the planning and decision making in the club and particularly enjoy planning the healthy snack menu.
