OUT-OF-SCHOOL-CARE PARENT SURVEY - STANLEY BAY SCHOOL |
Kelly Club Before and After School Care
Dear Parents and Caregivers of the Stanley Bay School community,
Kelly Club are considering coming back to Stanley Bay School to run a Before and After School care programme for the Stanley Bay community. This partnership will be demonstrated by Kelly Club making a financial return to Stanley Bay School and the programme will be held onsite. To ensure that the programme is viable we need to gauge parent interest to see how many families might be interested in using the service.
Kelly Club provides OSCAR before and after-school care programmes throughout New Zealand. Our aim is to provide not just ‘a childcare facility’, but to create a safe environment where children can have fun and benefit from in a number of ways.

We previously operated at Stanley Bay School from April 2013 to July 2022.
Our OSCAR programmes are focused on science and discovery, sports and games, baking and cooking, art and craft activities and homework support as well as structured ‘free-time’ around a busy day at school. These activities are incorporated into themed subjects each week that give children the opportunity to extend their learning outside of the school classroom. We believe it is important that children get the opportunity to enjoy play and engage with friends, while being under the supervision of quality staff, during out of school care programmes.
Typical Day at Kelly Club After-School Care Programme
(Session options 3:00pm-4:30pm - $17, 3:00pm-6:00pm - $24)
Before school care 7am-8-30am

Our programmes are approved by the Ministry of Social Development and align to our national policies and procedures. Parents/caregivers that meet certain criteria will be able to access a Work and Income subsidy to help cover the cost, up to $6.10 an hour for a full subsidy. For more information, please visit: www.workandincome.govt.nz
Kelly Club has a flexible, state of the art online booking system that allows parents to easily manage their child/children’s bookings. Our system allows parents to book their children into a programme up to 6pm on the evening prior and allows for a cancellation up to 12pm of the proposed day which ensures that parents are not charged. Parents can also book their children into the programme via phone, email or in person during programme hours.
Below is also a short survey about your interest and experiences with out of school care and it would be kindly appreciated if you could please complete this by 3pm Friday 21st July.
