Join our Stay and Play Clubs after school

The adventure continues after the school bell at our Stay and Play afternoon clubs. Every session combines exciting themed activities, a healthy daily snack and Children’s Choice Adventures, giving children the perfect balance of structured fun, freedom to choose and time with friends.

Throughout the week, there’s even more to look forward to, including Snack Lab Mondays, where we give our daily snack an exciting takeover, and Team Up Fridays, bringing children together for a featured sport or team challenge. It’s a fun, engaging end to the school day where children can play, explore, build friendships and make every afternoon a new adventure.

Start your Stay and Play Club adventure. Find a venue near you!

Our Stay and Play clubs are created at schools’ request and most – but not all – are open exclusively to pupils of the host school. In this way, they’re a little different from our holiday clubs, which are open to all children. To search for your school or find your closest open venue, simply click below.

Daily Themed Activities

Powered by our Adventure Programme, every week brings a fresh new theme packed with daily activities designed to keep children curious, creative and excited to join in. From exploring music and movement in Sound Safari to discovering new ways to play in Play Your Way, our weekly themes bring something different to Stay and Play and make every week a new adventure.

Snack Lab Takeover - Mondays

Every Monday, Snack Lab gives our healthy daily snack an exciting takeover, turning an everyday part of Stay and Play into something extra special. From Toastie Takeovers and wonderful waffles to smoothies and seasonal favourites, children can enjoy tasty new experiences that make Monday snack time one of the highlights of the week.

Team Up Sports Club Fridays

Every Friday, Team Up brings children together for a featured sport or team challenge designed to get everyone moving, playing and involved. From baseball and football to exciting group games and challenges, it’s all about having fun, building confidence and developing teamwork – with participation always more important than competition.

Daily Healthy Snack

Our Stay and Play menus are specially designed to fuel hungry tummies and curious minds. Filled with yummy, nutritious foods, we combine everyday favourites with daily specials to keep things interesting, with a range of proteins, vegetables, fruit and fibre on offer each day. Check out our sample menu below!

You bring the essentials. We'll bring the fun!

In most instances, all your child really needs to bring to club are their unique talents. There’s a role for every child in every activity, and we can’t wait to help them explore their potential. Alongside their school day essentials, some children may also like to bring a favourite toy or comforter to help them settle into the afternoon session. You might also want to pack a change of clothes that you don’t mind getting messy in outdoor play or arts & crafts! Please clearly label all items with your child’s name, and please keep valuable toys or belongings at home; we cannot be held responsible if these go missing at the club.
