At On The Ball, we understand the challenges of balancing busy work schedules with family life. Our "On The Ball in Schools" provision is designed to provide a seamless extension to the school day, offering a reliable, safe, and stimulating environment right where your children feel most comfortable.
We work closely with schools to deliver high-quality wraparound care that prioritises children's wellbeing, development, and enjoyment.
Our Wraparound Care Services

Breakfast Clubs: We provide a calm and positive start to the school day. Our breakfast sessions ensure children are fuelled and ready to learn, offering a nutritious breakfast in a friendly setting where they can socialise with peers before the first bell rings.

After School Clubs: When the school day ends, we keep the momentum going. Our after-school provision offers a perfect balance of relaxation and enrichment. We provide a nutritious snack to keep energy levels up, followed by a wide range of engaging activities—from creative arts and crafts to active games and quiet reading zones—tailored to keep children entertained and inspired until you arrive for pick-up.
Our dedicated team is committed to maintaining the highest standards of care. By choosing On The Ball, you are ensuring your child benefits from a consistent, high-quality routine that supports their social skills, confidence, and happiness throughout the academic year.
WHAT WE OFFER
BREAKFAST CLUBS
At On The Ball, we know that a positive morning sets the tone for the entire day. Our Breakfast Club is designed to take the pressure off your morning routine while ensuring your child begins their school day feeling happy, nourished, and ready to learn.
Fuelled for Success
We believe that a healthy body supports a sharp mind. Every morning, we provide a nutritious and balanced breakfast, giving children the energy they need to focus and engage throughout their busy day of learning. Whether it’s a bowl of wholesome cereal, toast, or fresh fruit, we ensure every child is well-fed and settled before the school bell rings.
Engaging Morning Play
Our Breakfast Club is more than just a place to eat; it is a vibrant, welcoming space where children can socialise and unwind before heading into the classroom. We offer a diverse range of activities tailored to suit all ages and interests, including:
 Creative Stations: Arts, crafts, and drawing materials for those who enjoy a quiet, imaginative start.
 Active Play: Gentle games and puzzles that encourage social interaction and teamwork.
 Relaxation Zones: Comfortable areas for children who prefer a calmer environment to read or chat with friends.
By providing a blend of structure and freedom, our team ensures that children transition into their school day feeling calm and confident. With On The Ball, you can head to work with the peace of mind that your child is in a safe, supportive environment, enjoying a high-quality start to their morning.
AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS
After a long day of learning and concentration, children need a space where they can decompress, socialise, and have fun. Our After School Club provides the perfect environment for children to relax and recharge, giving you peace of mind that they are in safe, professional hands until you are ready for pick-up.
Nutritious Energy Boost
We know that the end of the school day can leave children feeling hungry and tired. To keep their energy levels up and their spirits high, we provide a healthy, nutritious snack upon arrival. This refuels them, ensuring they are comfortable and ready to make the most of their afternoon with us.
A World of Engaging Activities
Our After School Club is all about balance. Once the children have enjoyed their snack, we offer a wide variety of engaging activities designed to cater to every interest and personality:
* Active Fun: For children who have plenty of energy left to burn, we offer active games and sports that encourage movement and teamwork.
* Creative Exploration: From arts and crafts to building projects, we provide the tools for children to express their creativity and imagination.
* Relaxation and Downtime: We understand that some children prefer a quieter pace after a busy day. Our dedicated reading corners and chill-out zones offer a peaceful space to relax, read, or enjoy a quiet conversation with friends.
* Social Connection: Our club is a fantastic place for children to build friendships across different year groups, fostering a sense of community and belonging.
At On The Ball, we believe the end of the school day should be just as rewarding as the start. Our team is dedicated to creating a fun, inclusive, and supportive atmosphere where your child can finish their day with a smile, having learned new skills and made lasting memories.
