We are founding our Private Afterschool Program based on Linguajoy’s vast, long-term experience and knowledge in the field of education, in addition to having a team of skilled and warmhearted personnel.
Our operations are based on the principle of sensitive, thoughtful childcare, where we prioritize seeing and reinforcing the good in every child.
The Private Afterschool Program will be available for 25 hours of childcare per week (weekdays from 12:00-17:00 pm).
The Afterschool Program comprises of exciting elements, for example:
Homework circle:
The children are supported in and encouraged to do their homework.
Snack and relaxation moment:
This is an opportunity for the children to refuel and unwind.
Inspirational, fun instructor-led workshops such as:
- Music and rhythm classes.
- Let’s Travel the World: language immersion ‘showers’.
- Interactive play and games.
- Creative arts and craft workshops.
- Let’s be Active: yoga, dance, circuit training, football
- Discover the Secrets of the Universe: Super Science experiments and scientific exploration.
Outdoor play and field trips in the nearby regions:
Nature and the outdoors are a gateway for vital exploration that supports positive child development.
Daily indoor fun at the gym:
This provides a great chance to blow off some steam and play in a safe, enclosed environment.
No day will seem like the same-old thing.
The goal of the Afterschool Program is to provide the child with a wonderful, inspirational afternoon in a lovely environment filled with laughter, creative play, engaging foreign languages and the joy of sports and movement!
Of course, some things stay the same, as the children will always be served a tasty, energising snack daily to keep spirits high.
Please also note that the children are covered by insurance while attending the Afterschool Program.
The Linguajoy Private Afterschool Program allows you to choose between three (3) different Program Pathways:
JUNIOR-Program Pathway:
- This program offers a full-time (25hour) afterschool service every weekday from 12:00-17:00 pm.
- In the Junior-Program, the children will be picked up and taken to the Afterschool venue by the Linguajoy Team after the school day ends.
SENIOR-Program Pathway:
- This program invites your child to participate in the Afterschool Program daily for 3 hours.
- These 3 hours can be attended flexibly, based on their own individual schedule.
- The Senior-Program is best suited for children whose school days finish later in the afternoon, and for those who are able to arrive at the Afterschool Program by themselves.
- The Senior-Program provides a solid, safe structure to the family’s weekly life.
FLEXI-Program Pathway:
- The Flexi-Program allows your child to join the Afterschool Program in a flexible way throughout the school week.
- They can attend for a total duration of 10 hours across the week, based on their personal schedule.
- Within the Flexi-Program, it is possible to join in a multitude of ways. For example, a child might attend the Afterschool Program for several hours for only a couple of weekdays, and then just pop by quickly for a snack and unwind on another day or maybe just to join a fun language shower or workshop before heading home!
- The Flexi-Program is recommended in situations where the child’s schedule varies a lot, and it is important to be able to fully tailor the weekly program to smoothly combine school-time, their hobbies and the Afterschool Program!
- In the Flexi-program, the child should be able to arrive at the Afterschool by themselves.
