Please note that booking for this club is directly via Rookie Cooks on 31st March not Arbor. Please book via:  www.rookiecooks.com  or follow the link: www.rookiecooks.com/book-after-school/

Cooking is fun – especially if you’re between seven and twelve. Things to squeeze, knead, squirt, whisk, slice, grate and dice … and that’s before you get to enjoy the results! There are so many things that kids learn from cookery classes; they learn to follow recipes, to think ahead, weigh things accurately, chop things evenly and act sensibly around sharp knives and hot stoves. Children can also learn to be creative, learn when to improvise with a recipe and when not to. They learn to eat things that they think they don’t like (because everything tastes better when you’ve made it yourself). They learn that good, nutritious food is easy to make and completely delicious, and that working together leads to making new friends.

On the menu for the summer term:

Sushi, Summer fruit kebabs with dips, Roasted halloumi and salad wraps, Lemon tart, Gnocchi with homemade pesto, asparagus and beans, Mini meringues with berries, Greek spinach, potato and cheese pies, Biscotti, Stir Fry with noodles, Summer fruit smoothie bowls, Two summer salads, and Chocolate mousse!

Dance is an inclusive, kind and exciting environment that teaches pupils of all abilities.  The children will be taught the disciplines of modern, street, stage, and freestyle dance – fusing all the genres together to give an eclectic and well-rounded knowledge of dance to its pupils. Join us and see your child's confidence, skill and love of dance soar.

Activity Clubs F.A.Q.s

Frequently Asked Questions About Extra-Curricular Clubs

When do clubs run?

Clubs run for the duration of term time, from 3:40pm to 4:40pm. If the school is open, clubs are on. The only exception to this is when school closes early on the last day of term or if there is a special event, e.g.  Parents’ Evening or Fireworks Night – you will not be charged for these days.

What if a club leader is absent?

There are several ways in which a club will be covered in the event of a club leader being absent:

  • A member of Coldfall staff will cover the club
  • In some instances, the club leader will arrange cover in advance
  • The children at the club will take part in a club run by Mr Browning or Mr Hylton that week

Can I book the clubs via Phone?

You can only book Activity Clubs via your Arbor account. Please note that we cannot take telephone bookings for these. 

Why can’t I find the club I am looking for on Arbor?

When a club is fully booked, they no longer appear on Arbor.

Can I transfer my child's booked club to another child?

Please note that you cannot transfer booked clubs form one sibling to another or swap with another parent. 

Why do certain days have more clubs for KS1 or KS2?

We try very hard to have a good balance of clubs available to all year groups on any given day; however we are limited by the days that external club leaders are able to deliver their sessions. 

What happens to outdoor clubs during bad weather?

All clubs scheduled to be outdoors will remain outside, regardless of the weather, due to clubs operating at full capacity. Please send your child to school with the appropriate clothing.

Why can’t more clubs be added to the timetable?

We are currently using all available spaces for extra-curricular clubs. To maintain high standards, as well as for health and safety reasons, we do not have more than 20 children in a club unless an additional adult is available to support this. We have added clubs to the program which has increased overall availability, but we cannot guarantee that your child will get a place in their first choice club.

My child really enjoyed a club. Why has it been cancelled?

Clubs will be cancelled for the following reasons:

  • Lack of demand
  • The club leader can no longer commit to delivering the club

Why don’t you keep a waiting list for clubs?

A waiting list would be very difficult for the school to maintain. It would take up a huge amount of time and would affect the day-to-day running of the office. To make the system as fair as possible, we will inform parents and carers of when the club bookings will open in good time. 

What is your policy on refunds?

All club places must be paid for one term in advance and your child is committed to a club for one term. Please make sure that you select a club that your child enjoys as NO REFUNDS will be given. It is also not possible to switch to another club during the term.

In the unlikely event that your child has to be withdrawn from a club due to their behaviour, you will not receive a refund for the remaining sessions. 

Please note that if your child is collected late on three occasions in one term, they will lose their place at their club and you will not receive a refund for the remaining sessions.
