For most parents, the scheduled hours of school do not fit into a perfect day—there are gaps of time between when the school bells ring. We fill this time productively and entertainingly, with safe and fun ways to enrich your child’s after-school hours.
What is After School Care?
In other words, after-school care describes a program that is formulated and drawn with the purpose of looking after the child beyond the usual school day.
The After School Care Program at Learning Ladder Academy is much more than providing a place where children stay until their parents come to pick them up at the end of the day. We have created a vibrant environment, providing children an opportunity to express themselves, socialize, and cultivate life skills under the eyes of caring professionals.
Our program runs after school until 6:00 PM, Monday to Friday. We’re very proud of activities geared toward learners of all ages and interests. From homework help, through creative arts and outdoor play, we make sure that each child finds something he or she loves doing.
Ways in Which After School Care Benefits Children
Tutoring
Another critical advantage of our after school care program is related to academic work. Many times, children find difficulty in doing their homework or need explanations regarding some topics.
We have trained staff on board who will facilitate and explain, guiding the children so that they can understand those tough topics quickly. It makes them beneficial for good grades and confidence.
This creates a special opportunity for children that they will not find in other areas besides schools. Group activities and free play are essential ways for kids to learn or even practice a lot of important social skills, including but not limited to teaming up to accomplish something, communicating, and conflict resolution, which are useful for success in school and life in general.
Physical activity
With rising concerns about childhood obesity, our after-school care program assures that children are active. We provide outdoor play and organized sports in our daily routine, thus ensuring that children are able to burn off extra energy and develop healthy habits.
Creative Expression
Art and craft, music, and drama are an intrinsic part of the after-school care program. Such creative media allows the students to express themselves, build up their confidence, and find newer abilities. Be it painting, singing, or doing a mimetic of a play; we encourage children to find their artistry side.
Safety and Supervision
Importantly, our after-school care program offers a safe, supervised environment for children so that parents can rest easy during work and can pick the children up from the academy after work.
