After School Club - Ref 341

This page will contain information for and about this after school club, background, stories and what we have been up to.

It will be for both children and parents to see what they have achieved as well as what is planned for each session.

How quickly the children pick up the games may cause changes to the schedule.

Overview of this terms after school club

These sessions aim to promote strategy gaming and introduce the children to a selection of games they may never have even heard of by providing equipment and my knowledge.
Over the course of the term all the children that are interested will get the chance to spend a session learning how to make their own model scenery and a second session learning how to paint a model.
