Aftercare


The aim of the Bentley Preparatory aftercare is to provide a safe, relaxed, happy 'home from home' atmosphere for the children in our care. All of our staff have years of experience.

Enrolment to Bentley Preparatory Aftercare Centre:

 You will receive an enrollment form which you need to complete and return to us with all necessary details e.g. relevant contact numbers, addresses and important information about your child. Please note enrollment forms are essential and that any changes to this information must be brought to our attention immediately. You will also receive a 'Rules and Regulations' form which you are asked to read through with your child. We have set rules which we insist on being adhered to for the safety and security of your child and the smooth running of the aftercare.

  • Daily program:
On arrival to the aftercare center each day your child will receive a midday meal which is varied each day.

Children doing sports activities will be helped into their sports clothes and sent to their relevant activities. 

Free play indoors or outdoors will be the child's own choice as our staff are stationed in and outside during the entire afternoon. Children should be encouraged to wear play clothes in the afternoon to protect their school uniform. 

We have books, puzzles, lego, playdough, colouring books etc for indoor play. We have a Television/video/DVD player for those wet, cold days when the children want to watch, although this is not a regular practice at the aftercare.

Yogurt, fruit and juice will be served at 16h00.

Homework half hour for Grade 1 - 2 is done from 13h30-14h00, and Grade 3 - 7 from 15h00-16h00. This time will be our quiet time of the day and if there are parents who do not wish for their child to participate in homework class, we need this to be given to us in writing. Children should bring their own stationary for homework class (pencil, eraser, ruler etc). If the children have extra-murals they are encouraged to do homework when they return. Children will be supervised by the staff, and parents should encourage their child to be honest and responsible about their homework. 

Because of the irregular picking up times of children and the busy sports programme we are not able to provide structural play for the children, therefore free play is offered. 

Closing time is strictly 17:30h00. Please note that late fetching of children is not seen in a good light and will be billed at R per fifteen minutes or part thereof and will be invoiced to your school fees
