School Clubs
Welcome to our School Clubs page. Here you can find out all the information regarding our before-school and after-school provision.
Before school, we have a breakfast club provision running from 8 am. This costs £2.50 per day.
After school, we have two provisions:
The Ark, which is our wrap-around provision, running until 6pm every day (more information can be found below)
Our extensive free After School Club offer, which runs until 4.30pm (more information can be found below)
Due to our amazing free club offer, we have been shortlisted for Sports School of the Year at the North Northamptonshire Active Communities Awards for the last 5 years, winning the award in 2022 & 2023.
ALL CLUBS CAN BE BOOKED THROUGH THE ARBOR PARENT APP
"St. Mary's CE VA Primary have shown exceptional efforts to promote active lifestyles and enrich the local community. Last year, the school offered 70 free after-school clubs, with 86% of students participating, ensuring equal opportunities regardless of socioeconomic background. Initiatives include a bike mechanics club, community litter picks and partnerships with local sports clubs. St. Mary's actively supports local charities and engages in community improvement, exemplifying a commitment to fostering positive values and making a meaningful impact in North Northamptonshire."
THE ARK - WRAP-AROUND AFTER SCHOOL CLUB
From September 2025 we will be opening our paid wraparound offer for after-school care. We have tried to make this flexible so that families can still take advantage of our free clubs where they are available. The Ark club will run between 3.15pm and 6.00pm.
Any pupils that are late to be picked up after 15:25 will go to The Ark club and parents will be charged as below.
The session times and prices we will offer are below:
| 15:20 - 16:30 | £4.00 |
| 16:15 - 17:30 | £4.00 |
