Contact Information & Communication with the Club Spraoi Team

Christopher is the Coordinator at Club Spraoi Beaumont. You can contact him by email at beaumont@clubspraoi.ie at any time, or by phone at 083-0699710 between the hours of 1:30 to 6:15. Please use this number only if you need to contact us urgently, as his primary responsibility during our opening hours is to ensure the safety of all of the children in our care. For this reason, it is preferable for parents to email us with queries and by all means to schedule a phone call or meeting with Christopher for a time that he will be able to afford more time to speak with you. Christopher will be your point of contact for any issues, questions or concerns you may have relating to your child’s attendance.

We highly value the importance of good communication between us and our families and would urge you to make contact if there is anything that you would like to discuss with us about your child or likewise if you would like an update or any feedback from us.

For any queries on billing/payment please contact us at support@clubspraoi.ie

To submit a booking request, log into your AimyPlus profile and select the dates and session times that you require. The booking will then be approved by us, subject to availability for the session times and dates selected.

When making your booking, if you wish to pay weekly, select ‘Regular’. If you would like all sessions booked to appear on one invoice for payment upfront, please select ‘Casual’,

IMPORTANT: If you need to request a booking for the same day, you need to submit this booking request before 9am to allow sufficient time for us to check availability and to notify you that the booking has been accepted / declined. We will be unable to process any requests submitted after 9am,

Breakfast Club bookings must be submitted for approval before 6pm on the day before.

 

Payment

Club Spraoi operates a pre-pay service. All bookings must be paid for a minimum of one week in advance.

Each Monday you will receive an invoice by email which must be paid in full by 4pm on the Friday of that week.

IMPORTANT: Failure to pay an invoice by the due date will result in the cancellation of your sessions.

For any queries on billing/payment please contact us at support@clubspraoi.ie

IMPORTANT

It is the responsibility of the parent to ensure that your child’s bookings are in place. If you book from week to week or month to month and at the start of a new week/month there is no booking in place for your child, yet they show up at the Club Spraoi collection point at the end of the school day, we will be unable to accommodate them. They will be sent to the office for the school secretary to notify you that they need to be collected by you. (We are not insured to have children in our care that are not booked in, and bookings can only be made by the parent through the parent Club Spraoi profile).

 

Cancellations/Amendments

If you wish to cancel a booking you need to email the Club Spraoi team at beaumont@clubspraoi.ie and let us know that session/s that you need to cancel. If the cancellation is made more than 24 hours before the start time of the session, the cost of the session will be credited to your account. If the cancellation is made less than 24 hours before the start time of the session, you will lose the cost of the session. If the session/s had not been paid in advance, the charge for this will remain on your account to be paid and no future bookings will be accepted until payment has been received.

If you have a session booked and you wish to change it to a session of shorter/longer duration, you will need to email the Club Spraoi team at beaumont@clubspraoi.ie and let us know that session/s that you need to amend (if an extension of a 1:30-2:30 session is required, this will be subject to availability at 2:30). If this is done more than 24 hours in advance of the session time, any credit due will be added to your account. You can use this credit to pay for future booking.

 

When your child is unwell / absent from school

If your child does not attend school, or is collected by you during the school day due to illness or another reason, it is your responsibility to notify us that your child will not attend. You may be cancelling the session within 24 hours of the start time and therefore not entitled to credit for the session. However, the session must still be cancelled. Where you fail to notify us by email, we will assume that your child will be present at the session start time and will use our best efforts to locate your child, including but not limited to: phoning parents, searching the school and school grounds, speaking to a representative of the school and alerting the Gardai where necessary. Failure to notify us of a non-attendance in accordance with this policy will incur a penalty of €10 which will be imposed on your Club Spraoi account.

In the event that your child has been excluded from the school as result of displaying symptoms of an Infectious Disease (such as, but not limited to COVID-19) the child shall be excluded from attending Club Spraoi until such time as the child in question has been readmitted to the school. (For further information on infectious illnesses and the exclusion periods please read our Policy on Infection Control.)

 

Late Collection

Where your child is collected more than 10 minutes after the end of the booked session you will be charged for that hour and every subsequent hour thereafter. The additional charges will be applied to your Club Spraoi account. Please note that no future bookings can be made until all charges on your account have been paid.

Where your child is collected after 6pm, you will be automatically charged €5.00 per every 10 minutes you are late collecting the child past closing time. The additional charges will be applied to your Club Spraoi account. Please note that no future bookings can be made until all charges on your account have been paid.

 

Extension of a session (on the day)

Should you require your child’s session to be extended you may do so, by contacting us by phone (number to follow) within 1 hour of the end of your child’s session. You must inform us of the time you expect to collect your child. The additional charge will be added to your invoice for the following week.

 

When School Finishes Early

On the days that school finishes early for a half day, we will be onsite to provide care at the earlier finishing time. The cost for this additional time will be added to your invoice for that week. If you already have a booking place for that day, we will assume that you need us to collect your child at the earlier time (and will add the additional charge to your account), unless you contact us to cancel the session for that day.

National Childcare Scheme

We operate the National Childcare Scheme (NCS) which helps parents to meet childcare costs.
The scheme provides 2 types of childcare subsidy for children over 6 months of age:
• A universal subsidy for children up to 15 years of age. It is not means tested.
• An income-assessed subsidy for children up to 15. It is means tested.

If you would like to find out more information regarding eligibility and to apply please visit
https://www.ncs.gov.ie/en/

If you have been awarded claim hours and you would like us to register your child to receive the subsidy, please email is the details of your claim to support@clubspraoi.ie

 

Payment of invoices when claiming a subsidy on the NCS

We invoice parents one week in advance for all bookings. We receive payment of subsidies from the National Childcare Scheme one week in arrears. For this reason, you will need to pay the first two weekly invoices when your child first attends with us. On the second week that they attend, you will receive the subsidy for the first week. This credit will be applied to your account, reducing the total due for the following week.

We recommend that all parents familiarise themselves with the Club Spraoi Policies and also with the full set of Terms & Conditions.

Collection and Drop Off Procedures

Drop off for Breakfast Club:
Please bring your child to the door to the Halla at the back of the Boys School and call our number 083-0699710 and one of our team will come out to take your child/children.

Collection by Club Spraoi at 1:30:
In the girls school, the infant teachers bring the children that are attending Club Spraoi to the Preschool room where our team will be waiting for them.

In the boys school, the Club Spraoi team collect the boys directly from their teachers.

Children arriving to Club Spraoi at 2:30:
All children from 1st to 6th Class are to make their way to the Preschool room in the Girls School. (On certain days depending on the numbers and ages of children booked in, some or all of the First Class children will be brought to the boys school)

Collection by parents at 2:30:
We will bring all children that are going home at 2:30 to the front door of the Boys school. Please come to this door and we will sign out these children one at a time and hand them over to you/another authorised person. There is a lot of traffic at the school at this time so it is very important that you do not call your child away from the group and take them, but wait for us to sign them out and
hand them over to you directly. At the start of term it may take us a little time to get to know you all so please bear with us!

Collection by parents at 3:30 / 4:30 / 5:30 / 6:15:

Junior / Senior Infants
When collecting your child in Junior / Senior Infants, please go to the front of the Boys school, call us at 083-0699710 and wait for us to bring your child/children to you.

1st to 6th Class
When collecting your child in 1st to 6th Class, please go to the door of the Preschool Room at the Girls school and you can collect your child there.
***On days when we have a larger number of older children booked in, the first class children will join the Junior and Senior Infant children in the Boys School. We would appreciate your patience at collection time if we need to re-direct you to the Boys school for collection. We will radio the staff
there to have your child ready so that you can collect them at the door to the Boys school.

Note: In order for us to provide the best experience possible for the children, dividing the groups in this way enables us to plan more age specific activities for the children. However, when siblings wish to be together of course we will be as flexible as possible in facilitating this.

IMPORTANT:
If you arrive on the school grounds and you see your child playing in the yard area outside, PLEASE DO NOT TAKE YOUR CHILD WITHOUT NOTIFYING ONE OF OUR TEAM THAT YOU HAVE ARRIVED TO COLLECT.

Only authorised persons named on your child’s profile will be permitted to collect your child. If on occasion you need someone else to collect your child, you will need to contact the Coordinator directly in advance of the collection time to authorise this person to collect you child.

Due to Tusla Regulations, children can only be collected by someone over the age of 16.

Snack time

We provide a healthy snack for the children, with snack time taking place at approximately 3:40 each afternoon. Every care is taken by us to select enticing snack options that take into account any dietary requirements within the group. (Please update your profile to reflect any dietary requirements for your child).

Your coordinator will email all parents with the snack plan monthly. In this way, if you see something on the plan that your child does not eat, you will be able to provide your child with additional food in their lunch box for them to eat instead at snack time.

Homework Supervision

Our team will supervise and support the children in the completion of their homework Monday to Thursday. However, we do ask that parents check their child’s homework and reading at home as they may not have had time to complete it all, and to ensure that parents are monitoring any difficulties that their child may have in completing exercises assigned by the teacher.

Art, Drama, Lego, Taekwondo and other After School Activities

If your child will be attending any of the various after school activities that are scheduled throughout the week at Beaumont Boys / Beaumont Girls NS, please email Christopher at beaumont@clubspraoi.ie to advise him of the day and time that your child’s activity will take place and he will be able to facilitate the dropping and collecting of your child. (Please note that we are unable to reduce the session cost/time for the time that your child will be at their activity.)

Behaviour Management

While at Club Spraoi, children will be required to demonstrate socially acceptable behaviour. They must respect differences and refrain from disrespecting and from causing physical or emotional harm on any other child. It is inevitable as children develop and learn, there are times when they need support and guidance to understand that their behaviour is not acceptable. However, when there is a sustained pattern of serious behavioural issues (as defined in our Policy for the Management of Behaviour) we may need to exclude your child on either a temporary/permanent basis should their attendance be deemed as putting the rest of the group at risk of harm.

For further information please see our Policy for the Management of Challenging Behaviour and our full Terms & Conditions.

Sunscreen

We strongly recommend that parents apply a long-lasting sunscreen in the morning, before school/holiday care.

In the event that further sunscreen application is needed during periods of sunny weather, written consent from the parent is not required to apply sun protection creams supplied by the parent/guardians for their own child. However, if you have not supplied sunscreen, written consent is required from parents/guardians to apply sun protection creams supplied by the service in order that the parent can advise if a previous adverse reaction may have occurred with the cream supplied by the service.

If you require clarification on any of the above information, please contact Christopher by email at beaumont@clubspraoi.ie at any time.
