Breakfast and After School Clubs

The school offers a breakfast club for pupils from Reception to Year 6.

Breakfast club opens at 7.30 a.m. and pupils stay at the club until the school day begins. We ask that all children are in Breakfast Club by 8.00 am to enable them to have time to have breakfast before their school day starts. Members of staff then escort the children to their classroom at 8.40 a.m. to join their classmates.

Breakfast club costs £2.50 per day (or £12.50 for the whole week) and consists of toast, cereal and a variety of fruit and cheese. We also offer a range of activities such as games, ICT activities, puzzles, colouring and sporting activities. Breakfast Club is run by qualified members of staff. You will receive a weekly invoice through Parentmail – please pay these promptly.

After School Clubs

At Cedar Children’s Academy we feel it is important to offer a varied selection of after school activities.

We offer 2 sessions; end of school – 4.30 p.m and end of school – 5.30 p.m. Children have access to refreshments throughout their stay, but those children staying until 5.30 p.m are offered a choice of snack. Snacks vary from sandwiches, toast, wraps and a selection of fresh and dried fruit. Seedlings is based in the Junior dining hall. We are able to offer a range of activities from music, games, sports, colouring, support with homework, ICT and much more!

  • Dream Academy - available for Reception pupils through to Year 6. £40 per month with the first lesson free.

Dream Academy is a Performing Arts School offer classes from 18 months right through to adults. We provide workshop style classes consisting of Singing, Dance and Drama to give a full creative experience for all performing arts students.

All students perform a live summer show each year to give our students the platform to present their new found confidence and skills. We are also involved in varying external projects in Kent including; charity events, community fares and much more. Becoming accustom to performing publicly from an early age can combat issues often experienced in later life such as difficulty speaking to strangers on the phone, performing well in job interviews and building new relationships.

Dream Academy’s core focus is to improve children’s self-confidence and social skills. We feel that our Performing Arts workshops are the perfect way for your child to develop these personal skills and attributes. As well as being a fulfilling creative outlet for children, we have also found that Performing Arts helps children build friendships more easily, feel more confident with public speaking and also improves children’s reading and writing skills.
