The Out of School Club meets in the halls of Killermont Church in Rannoch Drive and provides care for up to 40 children each day.
Staff collect children from Killermont Primary School at 3pm each day and the club is open until 6pm.
On most school holidays and in-service days, (with the exception of public holidays), the club is open from 8.45am – 6pm.
Children from other schools are also welcome to attend, although cannot be collected from their school.
Children are offered a healthy snack each day, which they are involved in choosing.
They have an opportunity to rest in a quiet area and staff provide a homework area for those children who wish to use it.
