For Years 0 to 8 Students.

The After School Care Programme runs every day after school from 3:00pm until 5:30pm. It is a fully supervised programme for Columba College students from Years 0 to 8. Students remain on the school grounds, on the Hill Jack campus in the Solway block.

The supervisor runs a varied and interesting programme. Students have the opportunity to be involved in outdoor play, indoor activities or to start their homework. Parents are welcome to visit the After School Care programme and to meet the supervisor, Mrs Rachel Taylor.

Students may come on a regular or casual basis. The programme provides a regular service as well as being a back-up for parents who have an unexpected commitment after school. All students receive afternoon-tea, irrespective of the length of their stay.
