Club Evergreen
Our refreshed after school care programme
Have you considered St Cuthbert’s after school care programme, Club Evergreen, for 2021? It might just make your afternoons a whole lot easier.
Club Evergreen is a bespoke St Cuthbert’s run after school care programme designed to support our Years 0–8 parents to juggle their busy lives, while providing their daughters with a fun-filled few hours after school.
We are thrilled to announce a fantastic new location in the Junior School precinct in a well-equipped classroom near the Junior playground. This enables an easy pick-up for parents from the Junior School Carpark and means that the girls can enjoy the playground after school.
The programme continues to be managed by our long-term after school care Manager Sandy Thomas, whom many of your daughters know well, and has been reshaped to include a fresh array of activities and collaborators. This term, our attendees are enjoying activities such as cake decorating with our wonderful onsite Chef and sweet treat expert, Kelda, who used to create amazing high teas as Head Pastry Chef at the Langham Hotel, and much more. The programme has been extended with new activities including gardening and more throughout 2021.
When girls attend, they enjoy a healthy afternoon tea, engage in new skills and complete homework in a supportive and relaxed environment. It is also a great chance to spend time with girls from other year levels.
Club Evergreen offers a convenient, affordable, and caring programme during term-time from 3.00pm–5.30pm, Monday to Thursday. Girls are welcome to attend on a permanent, parttime, or casual basis. Some parents choose Club Evergreen while they take a sibling to an extra-curricular activity, or while waiting for later swimming lessons in the St Cuthbert’s pool. Some girls come before or after Sport, Music, or Drama practice, while waiting for late buses, or on parent interview days. Others find it a convenient option for a late pick-up after work.
Special thanks to our 2020 Year 8 Communications and Community Relations Team for their wonderful insight and assistance in helping name our new after school care programme ‘Club Evergreen’.
