Our Before & After School Care offers a safe, friendly and stimulating environment for your children when you are unable to be at home for whatever reason.

It is situated on school grounds beside an adventure playground and is supervised by trained staff, who understand children’s needs. The atmosphere is more relaxed than school but with the necessary boundaries to ensure safety. The program is structured with a choice of activities provided which are based on a theme. The themes fit in with the school curriculum and change each Term depending on the topic. Supervision of homework takes place Monday to Thursday, Parents are responsible for signing off for Teachers and the quality of the work produced.

Children at Sherwood School aim to be Risk-takers

They approach unfamiliar situations and uncertainty with courage and forethought, and have the independence of spirit to explore new roles, ideas and strategies.
They are brave and articulate in defending their beliefs.
