All fees are payable monthly in advance, no later than the 7th day of each month. We regret to inform you that if your school account is in arrears, you will be asked to remove your child/children from the Aftercare Centre.
2. ALL children attending the Aftercare Centre must wear the Aftercare shirt. These can be purchased from the School. It is expected that every child has two shirts, to allow for washing. Encourage your child to bring a pair of shorts or long pants and sports shoes so that he/she can be more comfortable after school. Please also ensure that your child has a warm jacket or jersey.
3. If you are collecting your child early and he/she will not be attending Aftercare on a particular day, please advise the School per letter or personally advise the Aftercare Teacher, as the child is on the register and the Aftercare Teacher will spend unnecessary time looking for your child.
4. If you have registered your child for Supervision only, your child MUST be provided with a packed lunch to have after school. Children cannot manage the whole day until 17h30 with only a sandwich at 10h00.
5. Please read through the Rules and Regulations carefully with your child.
6. You are expected to fetch your child from the Aftercare Teacher so that he/she can be marked off on the register. No child will be permitted to leave the supervision of the Aftercare Teacher without the responsible person being present. If your child makes use of public transport to go home or walks home and is not fetched by an adult, please indicate this on the Application form on the bottom of the first page.
7. If your child is going home with a friend, a letter of permission must be sent to the School.
8. Please remember that we require a FULL CALENDAR MONTH’S notice if you are withdrawing your child from the Aftercare Centre.
9. The Aftercare Teachers go off duty at 17h30. Children not collected by 17h30 will be placed in the care of Mr Aubrey Dlamini or other responsible person. Any child who is repeatedly collected late (i.e. after 17h30), will be asked to leave the Aftercare Centre, as Mr Dlamini goes off duty at 17h30.
10. I feel sure that if we all work together in observing the rules and regulations, our common goal of making the Aftercare Centre a happy place can be realised.

  • The Aftercare Centre is a facility that is granted to pupils attending Saxonwold Primary School.
  • It exists for the benefit of parents / caregivers who are unable to care for their children during weekday afternoons.
  • It aims to provide a structured, safe and disciplined, yet pleasant environment for its pupils, and to make provision for the completion of homework for those children who need it.
  • Because it is less formal than “school” and because it functions in the afternoons when children are tired, it is not easy to maintain safety, cohesion and orderliness. A lack of discipline on the part of a few children will inevitably affect the majority, compromise the authority of the Aftercare personnel and militate against the maintenance of standards throughout the school.
  • The Aftercare Centre draws its income from its participants, and therefore neglect of payment of fees will compromise it financially. Fees  are due and payable monthly in advance. Admission to the Aftercare programme is subject to school fees being paid up to date. Parents are to understand that payments received by the school are first allocated to school fees owing and thereafter to the Aftercare. Hence it is important that the account is fully paid.

Children are expected to report to their Aftercare Teachers straight after school, so that their attendance can be recorded on the Aftercare Register.
2. Once they have registered with the relevant Teachers, they may go to the Extramural activities (if applicable).
3. If they are not participating in an extramural activity, they are to remain within visual proximity of their Aftercare Teacher.
4. When the bell is rung for the start of the homework classes, they must IMMEDIATELY line up at the Aftercare Centre, where they will be escorted by their Teachers to the relevant classrooms.
5. If they are still involved in an extramural activity when the homework bell rings, they must report to their Aftercare Teacher IMMEDIATELY after the extramural activity has ended.
6. NO children may leave the school premises until they have been collected by their parents or other responsible person. All persons collecting children MUST sign the Aftercare register.
7. The parent / caregiver must inform the Aftercare Teacher that the child is leaving, so that it can be recorded on the register.
8. If a child is present at school, but will not be attending Aftercare for that day, he/she must inform the Aftercare Personnel. In this case it is preferable if the parents send a note to the School.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator border_width=”4″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1514461796021{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 35px !important;}”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1507541363759{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”SERIOUS BREACHES OF DICIPLINE” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1543312445129{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 13px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1543313044762{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]a) Leaving the School premises or an Aftercare activity without the knowledge and consent of the person in authority.
