Wraparound Care

The Hive at Holmes Chapel Primary School

From September 2026 we will be offering before and after school child care on our premises at The Hive. We would like to reassure families that all children requiring places will be accommodated.

The booking system is now live. Please log into Arbor to book for before or after school care under clubs. Due to GDPR restrictions we are unable to automatically transfer places from current providers. It is therefore the parents responsibility to book places. The flexibility of the new system allows you to amend spaces up to 2 weeks in advance, so that there is no pressure to secure a full year of places.

Payment By Tax-Free Childcare Vouchers - As a setting we are committed to accepting payment from all Childcare vouchers schemes. Payment for fees can be split equally across the year. Payment for places are not expected to be paid prior to 1st September 2026.

We are registered with the following schemes:-

  • Edenred

  • Care 4

  • Fideliti

  • Kiddivouchers

  • Computershare

  • Sodexho

  • RG Childcare

  • Childare Choices

  • HMRC Tax Free Childcare Scheme

  • Login to your parent portal account, link your account to the DFE number 8952615 to set up your direct monthly payments. We will then apply your payment to your arbor account, as they are received.

Is your scheme not listed, no problem, please email [email protected] so that we register.
