Please send your request of interest by email to childcare@ravenscote.surrey.sch.uk, stating the days and sessions you would like.

Our after school childcare facility, Ravens Roost, runs on a strict child to adult ratio. Bookings must be made in advance. Bookings are made for the same days every week until you instruct the facility to stop your bookings (a full half terms' notice is needed.) Ad-hoc bookings are not accepted. Bookings will be continually made until we are instructed in writing to terminate your bookings. A full half term’s notice is required to cancel bookings. Places in Ravens Roost get booked up quickly. Please remember that if you cancel your child’s place at Ravens Roost there is no guarantee that the place will be available if you need it again in future.

Ravens Roost is very popular and can only accommodate a limited number of children. Ravens Roost is already booked up for most days.

We can only accept regular bookings. Ad-hoc bookings are not accepted.

If we are able to accommodate your bookings (bookings are processed on a first come first served basis) you will be sent an email confirmation. You will then be sent our Ravens Roost Booking Form to complete, along with your child's dietary/medical/contact information. You will be able to see your bookings on your child’s SCOPAY account.

PLACES DO FILL UP QUICKLY, SO PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU SEND YOUR BOOKING REQUEST AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.  

Bookings will roll over every half term until we are instructed otherwise. We require a full half term’s written notice to cancel a regular booking.

If we are unable to accommodate your bookings, your child will be added to our waiting list. If a place becomes available, we will contact you by email.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

Currently, we are not asking for a deposit for Ravens Roost childcare.

Do we accept non-regular bookings?

No, ad-hoc bookings are not accepted for Ravens Roost childcare.

In order to ensure that the right number of staff are in place we do need to know which days each child is coming. 

Please see our information booklet (below) for full details and terms and conditions.

If anyone other than a parent will be collecting your child, please email Ravens Roost in advance to let them know on childcare@ravenscote.surrey.sch.uk
