Downshall Primary School

Shine Clubs are delighted to offer the students of Downshall Primary School an outstanding childcare setting, exclusively for the use of the children of the school.  The breakfast and after school club will run during term time only.

Shine Clubs provide peace of mind to all parents and carers by providing a safe and stimulating environment where children can play, have fun and learn whilst being cared for by our qualified and experienced staff.  We understand what parents expect for their children when choosing childcare, so we provide a comprehensive range of services that reduces the pressure on parents and provides maximum benefits for the children.

Our aim is to continue to provide peace of mind to all parents and carers by maintaining a safe learning environment in which children are happy and thus raising the standards in childcare provision.  SHINE clubs provide the highest standard of after school childcare services for parents and carers in the community and beyond.

SHINE clubs believes all children regardless of their personal circumstances or abilities should be able to participate in and enjoy our array of activities. It improves a child's confidence to get involved with the session, have the skills to participate and show a desire to improve and achieve.

Our Mission statement is to provide a safe, clean, well-organised environment which gives children the opportunity to learn and become independent within a well-structured group.  Enable parents/guardians to continue with their studies or find and retain employment, confident in the knowledge that their children are being cared for in the way that they would wish.  Maintain good quality care providing a wide and varied range of activities.

We present as good role models for the children in our care as children can learn through imitating adult behaviour. Children can benefit from adult interaction and attention.  They also benefit from stimulation, and age and stage appropriate activities which help prevent boredom. We believe this approach encourages positive child development and discourages unacceptable and difficult behaviour.

PLEASE NOTE: Parents of children in Nursery and Reception cannot book their child into Shine for more than 2 hours in total per day.
