Happy Hometime Club
The Happy Hometime Club opened in October 1993.
It is based in 2 Mobile classrooms and in the KS2 building in the grounds of Whitehouse Common Primary School.
Children Attending Whitehouse Common Primary School, including Nursery, may be registered as members of the club.
In 2020 we had an Ofsted inspection. If you would like to read this report, please click here.

New Booking System
Bookings will be on a first come first served basis and once the allocated places for each session are full you will not be able to book.
Staffing ratios are set on the amount of prebooked children. Therefore, if the session is full and you have not booked we are unable to accept additional children on the day.
All bookings must be made through the Magicbooking system. There is no facility to book via email or by telephone or in person
Please also note that as stated in letter dated 8th December we will not be offering food in the afternoon Club. We request that you provide your child with a snack for their time at club and we will continue to provide drinking water. We will also continue to offer breakfast in the mornings.
Please ensure if you are paying by childcare vouchers you have made us aware and informed us of your voucher reference code. It is important that vouchers are paid into the correct account a minimum of one week in advance – Happy Hometime, NOT the school.

- At the beginning of each Term parents should advise of any holidays booked and and will not be charged.
- Fees are payable IN ADVANCE - through School Money.
Childcare vouchers are also accepted.
NO cash or cheques will be accepted. - It should be appreciated that staff hours must be organised in advance according to expected numbers therefore, once sessions are booked, they are chargeable. If extra sessions are required for a particular week, every effort will be made to accommodate them.
- There is no reduction for part of a session and, equally, if any child is collected after the agreed sessions ends, the full amount for that next session will be charged.
- PENALTY CLAUSE - late payment of fees causes a disproportionate amount of work for the Manager in collecting them. Therefore, a late payment fee and removal of a place at club will be levied if fees are not paid.
