St Peter's CE Primary School in Harrogate has unveiled a new, purpose-built hub for its wraparound care provision, giving its before and after school club a permanent base within the school grounds.
Previously operating across shared facilities, the ‘Fun Club’ now runs from a dedicated space designed to provide a comfortable and engaging environment for children outside of regular classroom hours.
The club runs for 50 weeks of the year, offering flexible support for families needing early starts or late pick-ups.
Headteacher Paul Griffiths said:
“We understand the pressures working families face. Our wraparound care isn’t just convenient - it’s an extension of our nurturing environment, where children continue to thrive beyond the classroom.
“There are fantastic staff that work both in school and at Fun Club ensuring pupils feel secure and happy while they are there.”
Fun Club was commended by Ofsted in October 2024 for its inclusive atmosphere and the strong relationships between staff and children.
St Peter’s CE Primary, which received a “Good” rating from Ofsted in March 2024, is known for its welcoming ethos and focus on joyful learning.
The school says its community includes families from both within and beyond the traditional catchment area, attracted by its reputation for care and academic standards.
Located in central Harrogate, the school offers free parking outside the gates and invites families to arrange guided tours with the Headteacher.
