Our Clubhouse building caters for all our Junior and Senior Infant children.

The children are dropped to us by our fully insured and registered bus service. The children then receive a hot meal from “Little Dinners“.

They then complete their homework under the supervision of fully qualified teachers and assistants.

Once their homework is complete we have a full range of activities for the children in the afternoon.
