After-school care Orion
4 to 13 year
Places available *
Our after-school care Orion is part of the community school. We share the building with primary schools De Cirkel and Willem-Alexander School. We provide many different activities. Nature, explorations, creative activities, drama, cooking, music, everything is covered. The children can either take part in an organised activity every day, or chill out or play by themselves if they want to do that. Which is fine too of course. Our after-school care has an adventurous playground where the children regularly go on adventures such as searching for bugs, building huts or making a fire under supervision. On our football pitch, the children can enjoy sports and exercise on artificial grass. We have a playroom inside and every group has different corners, such as a construction corner, an indoor corner and a creative area.
Before-school care is also offered at this location.
* There are currently several places available at this location (for specific days and/or age groups). Register now without obligation.

What does a day at our after-school care look like?
Every day may be different at after-school care. Below you can find out what a day at our after-school care basically looks like on a regular school day.
As soon as school is out, your child will be picked up from school by us or your child comes to the after-school care location by him/herself.
When all the children are inside, we go and sit around the table and have something to eat and drink, and we give the children some fruit. We use this moment to talk and catch up with the children.
After the table time, children are given the choice to play by themselves or join in the activities organised by us.
Untill 6.30 p.m.: time to pick up your child or your child will go home on his/her own in accordance with the agreements made. Will you pick up your child? Then the educational staff will take a moment to go through your child’s day with you during the handover. The educational staff member will focus on your child’s growth during the day.
Practical information
Settling in at after-school care
During the settling-in period, we take the time to get to know both you and your child, and let you familiarise with the new situation. Settling in is an individual matter, matching the developmental stage of children and the specific needs and habits of children and parents.
Groups
We have 6 groups at after-school care Orion. Three groups for children aged 4-7 and 3 groups for children aged 7-13.

Our location manager
Joni de Knegt
Hello, my name is Joni, location manager at Orion. I have been working in childcare for 15 years, including 3 at this location, which I am enjoying very much.
‘‘Children share their thoughts and help in making decisions at the Orion. We believe that children should feel that the after-school care is their place. That they feel comfortable and safe. That they find out their interests and develop them.”
