THE LODGE
We operate a before and after school club every day on the school site and is run by school staff. The Lodge provides the children with a safe, fun environment at both the start and the end of the school day. The Lodge is a specifically designed space to allow the children access to a wide range of toys, games and activities and also allow them the time and space to relax before or after a busy day.
​
To book a session, please contact Mrs Knowles via email at
thelodge@greattotham.essex.sch.uk or contact the school office on 01621 891091.
​
Please note, due to increasing numbers we have now had to implement a 1pm cut off for on the day bookings at The Lodge. Therefore we cannot guarantee a place for your child if you request a session after this time.
​
Breakfast sessions:
7:30 – 8:45am £4.00
Each morning breakfast is served until around 8:30 and consists of a selection of cereals, toast, yogurts and fresh fruit. The children are offered milk or water to drink. The children have a range of indoor games and activities available to them. At 8:45am KS1 children are escorted to class and KS2 children walk to class independently.
​
After school sessions:
3:20pm – until 5:30 (£8.00) or until 6pm (£9.60)
Each evening the children are served a light snack from 3.30pm. (Those children attending after school clubs are offered their snack when they arrive at the Lodge at 4.20pm)
Children with allergies/intolerances will be accommodated with a suitable alternative (please inform us via thelodge@greattotham.essex.sch.uk or speak to Mrs Knowles).
​
If you have any questions regarding the menu, please contact Mrs Knowles at The Lodge.
​
Similarly to breakfast sessions, the children are offered a range of exciting opportunities to engage in play, structured craft activities or spend time in the outside area. Children have access to a wide range of games and toys outside including pedal go-karts, ball games, skipping ropes and hula hoops.
