Ponsanooth After School Club
Services and organisations that have the Local Offer flash have filled out inclusion information, meaning that they meet the needs of people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)

We provide After School care for our Pre School children and children who attend the neighbouring Kennall Vale School which is a three minute walk away. Children are collected  from Kennall Vale School by two members of qualified staff who walk with the children back to our Setting.  Additional resources are provided for the older children.  All children can enjoy freeflow play from indoors to the enclosed outdoor play area as well as supervised visits to the neighbouring park and wildlife garden.
