Candles 

Welcome to Candles (Care and Learning at School)

Candles is the out-of-hours care facility at Heighington CE Primary School.

We provide before and after school care for children from 4-14 and are available every morning between 7:30am and 8:50am and every afternoon between 3:15pm and 5:50pm, Monday to Friday. 

Candles is led by Ms Ida Austin (Manager).  There are two additional team members – Mrs Lauren French and Mrs Beverley Smith.  Mr Morgan also supports outdoor games each morning. 

Candles aims to provide:

• - A safe and secure environment
• - A pleasant and enjoyable experience that is as demanding upon the children as they wish
• - Opportunities to experience a wide variety of creative and physical activities beyond the normal school day
• - Time and space for children to relax and enjoy a quiet time if they so choose
• - A healthy breakfast and afternoon snack
