After-school Care Programme
The St Andrew’s College After-school Care programme (ASC) operates daily in the Preparatory School Library. In Term 2 there are some exciting changes happening. Firstly, we have welcomed a new Supervisor, Olivia Meek. Olivia joins current Supervisor, Jade Lawson, in caring for our students in this space.
Our other new change is to the booking system. Currently we use an online programme called AimyPlus to manage bookings, track attendance and organise payments. Previously parents have booked via the Preparatory School Office or online booking sheet. From Term 2 parents will be able to book directly via the AimyPlus website or using the AimyMe App. The new booking system will give you much more autonomy to easily and directly manage your bookings.
