Aftercare at Kopano School is available to meet the regular childcare needs of our families for a safe, supervised place for students to study and play. Kopano staff members are committed to providing a safe, secure, caring environment for children outside of school hours.
After school care is offered for students in from KG – Std. 2 every day after school until 5:30 pm (Monday – Thursday) Friday 5pm, except for early dismissal days when no care is offered at all. There will be NO aftercare on the last day of the school term or the last day / Friday before a long weekend. Any other exceptions to this will be publicised ahead of time.
During the After School Program, children participate in a variety of activities including homework supervision, outdoor play time, games, computers, music and arts and crafts.
Children must bring their own lunch from home which will be stored in a fridge and a light afternoon snack is provided (Oros and biscuits or sandwiches) by the school. Children may bring their own snack from home if they prefer.
Students in the Pre-Primary must bring a soft fleece blanket, box tissues, box wet wipes
- All children must be picked up no later than 5:30 pm.
- A late fee of P20.00 per child will be charged if you arrive after 5.30pm. Any late fees must be paid directly to the staff on duty, and excessive late pickups may result in cancelled enrolment.
- We expect appropriate behaviour from the children after school. This always includes respect and cooperation. We want this time to be relaxing and enjoyable for all. You will be contacted if your child’s behaviour is inappropriate. The school reserves the right to cancel the enrollment for any child who does not abide by the rules or may cause harm to others in the programs.
- As a safety precaution, children attending after-care are required to remain within set boundaries at all times. Children will be clearly informed as to where these boundaries are.
- Children must bring a change of clothing (PE Kit) as they will not be allowed to play outside in their uniforms. All clothing must be clearly marked.
- Homework will be encouraged and supervised, but the onus still remains on the parents to see that all homework is completed.
- An application form must be completed. Please share any necessary information such as allergies or medical conditions which would be required to ensure a safe environment for your child.
