Lizard C.H.I.L.D. Trust - Chameleon Club Holiday Scheme

The Lizard CHILD Trust is a registered charity, which provides day nursery care & sessional care for children aged between birth & 5 years during term time, breakfast and after school care for children aged between 4 & 11, a holiday club for children between birth & 11 years.
We have a purpose-built nursery catering for children from birth onwards. It is a single-storey building with separate areas dedicated to each age group.
The building has suitable disabled access and an enclosed outdoor play area. There is also ample parking and drop-off facilities for parents on the roads outside the school itself. The 24-hour internal and external security cameras monitor the building which has its own security system. A safe, happy, stimulating environment has been created.
The nursery & clubs are staffed with a qualified and experienced manager & deputy manager. Currently, 17 members of staff are qualified to a level 3 or above and all others are working towards a recognised childcare qualification.
All members of staff are required to attend first aid, food hygiene, the prevent duty, and safeguarding training as well as other relevant courses to update skills & knowledge and to help maintain a professional and sensitive attitude to the needs of all children.
From September 2012 the Early Years Foundation Stage revised framework (EYFS) (DFES2012), became mandatory and for the children in our care we are committed to working towards its requirements. It takes a principled approach and these are grouped under 4 themes which are: A Unique Child, Positive Relationships, Enabling Environments, and Learning & Development. This approach ensures that the EYFS meets the overarching aim of improving outcomes and reflects that it is every child's right to grow up safe, healthy, enjoying and achieving, making a positive contribution, and with economic well-being.

We run our Chameleon Club during the school holidays inclusive for children from 0-11 yrs. This will depend on updated government guidance and the availability of spaces.
