Westies! is the afterschool care service within West Linton Early Learners and Westies!. We are based at West Linton Primary School in the Dining Hall. Westies! provides high quality childcare in a safe and stimulating environment with opportunities for play and fun both indoors and outdoors.<\/p>\n

The club offers a variety of snacks available throughout the session with water and fresh fruit or salad vegetables on offer. The children are asked to help select the snacks provided and choose recipes for baking activities.
\nThe children choose to focus their time on den building, construction, sensory play, creative crafts and role play opportunities. Staff facilitate these opportunities by observing and responding to the children\u2019s interests and requests.<\/p>\n

Westies! is overseen by a dedicated, caring team with a variety of training and experience to ensure your children receive the best possible care and support. Staff seek to build positive relationships with the children and their parents or carers. The children have selected the following values for Westies!:<\/p>\n
