Breakfast Club

Alarm clock

At Uplands Academy we provide a free daily Breakfast Club during term time for all children.

Breakfast Club provides children with a calm and friendly start to the day where they can socialise and play with friends before moving into class on time for the start of the school day. It’s a helpful option for busy families who require child-care provision in a safe, familiar environment.

  • Time: Monday – Friday from 8.00am – 8.30am
  • Cost: Free
  • Dates: Term time only

Do I need to book?

There is no need to book in advance. Parents and children can access the Breakfast Club when ever they need to use it.

Children will need to sign-in at the school reception when they arrive.  Please note that adult supervision is from 8.00am so please do not arrive or drop off children before this time.
