FunZone Costs and How to Book
Costs:
All FunZone bookings for the week must be paid for at time of booking via School Money unless you use Childcare vouchers to pay for FunZone (please see below).
Please always book your FunZone sessions in advance as we have increased FunZone numbers and need to ensure we keep to the appropriate adult:child ratios.
All parents/carers must check their booking has been accepted on the School Money system (or via email for those using Childcare vouchers) before sending their child to FunZone - Thank you.

LATE BOOKING CHARGES
Bookings are to be made by Wednesday evening for the following week. Bookings after this time will incur the following late booking charge:
£5 per booking per session.
Late Booking Charges will be taken via debit or credit card payment on either morning drop off or afternoon collection.
Please note, we cannot accept bookings for Monday morning after Friday close of school (14:30).
LATE COLLECTION IS NOT POSSIBLE: We cannot supervise any child past 17:30 for any reason. Therefore, 17:30 is the very latest you can collect from FunZone, and if you are going to be later than this for any unforeseen circumstance, please contact a friend or family member to collect on your behalf and advise us who is collecting.
Please ensure you telephone FunZone (01525 860206 option 4) in plenty of time to inform us who will be collecting your child by 17:30 if you cannot make it for 17:30. Many thanks.
CANCELLATIONS:
Any FunZone bookings are subject to a 24 hour cancellation notice. Bookings within 24 hours of a session will still require full payment. This is due to the fact we cannot cancel required staffing at such short notice. To cancel a booking, please email the office as parents are unable to cancel bookings via the system
Any FunZone sessions paid and cancelled before the 24 hour cut off window, can be moved to another slot (they cannot be refunded). In this instance, please email the school office to inform us of the change required
Due to low demand we are not currently running a before or after school club on a Friday - if we begin to receive more demand for this provision in the future, we will consider reinstating the Friday sessions at a later date.

Childcare vouchers are accepted. If you are paying by childcare vouchers, please email parents@clophillstmarysschool.co.uk to secure your booking as the School Money system cannot take payment in Childcare Vouchers. Any emails received after the cut off each week (the Wednesday evening for the following week) will also incur late charges. When booking with childcare vouchers, please clearly state:
Pupils Name
Pupils Class
Exact Days AND Dates you wish to book
Exact Sessions you wish to book (a.m. or p.m.)
Childcare vouchers can only be used to pay for FunZone within school. Please transfer the exact amount required when paying for FunZone sessions via Childcare vouchers as we cannot refund any extra amounts.
