Markinch After School Kids Club

Markinch After School Kids Club Markinch After School Kids (MASK) is a non profit making organisation. We are one of the longest established after school clubs in Fife.

MASK aims to provide stimulating and social play opportunities in a safe, nurturing setting with trained and experienced staff. We will achieve this by providing a varied programme of active and creative experiences utilising both indoor and outdoor environments. We will provide a nutritious healthy snack with access to fluids throughout the session. MASK is a community organisation run by a paren

ts committee, whose aim is to provide a high level of service at the lowest cost to the parents of primary school aged children, as is financially viable. This will enable parents to continue or seek employment or return to education. We will achieve this by working in partnership and building mutually trusting relationships with the parents/guardians. We aim to provide an inclusive friendly play setting. We will achieve this by raising awareness of various cultures, religions and disabilities. We will work in partnership with local support agencies to ensure the setting is accessible to all children and their parents. We aim to promote positive behaviour and encourage friendships. We will achieve this by the staff being good role models as children learn by imitating adults. We will praise and recognise positive behaviour at all times. We will also encourage peer support between the children especially between our youngest and eldest children.

Where has time gone, that was a quick 6 weeks of the summer holidays.

We hope all the children that attended our holiday club had fun, made friendships and lasting memories. The staff team want to thank each of you for helping make our jobs so rewarding and enjoyable. You are all stars 🌟

Now as excitement and dare I say some apprehension for tomorrow start making an appearance as they all embark on a new school year.

We want to wish all the children the best of luck especially the ones starting primary and secondary for the 1st time.

We will be looking forward to hearing all about it tomorrow and welcoming both our new families and the families we have missed over summer break back to the club ❀️

Week 6 - holiday club round up

We were so busy and excited that it was the last day of the Summer holiday club we forgot to post last weekπŸ˜‚

Monday - we went on a visit to the park as the sun had made a welcome return 🌞 the children enjoyed being creative making sand art pictures. A couple of girls chose to do a jigsaw challenging, as you can see they did a lot of jigsaws 🧩

Tuesday - the children had a badminton tournament with teams of 2 with the winners challenging the staff team to a game 🏸 there was lots of great designs whilst painting some pebbles to take home πŸͺ¨πŸ–ŒοΈπŸŽ¨

Wednesday - our trip to Riverside Park was very hot but the children made sure they all had lots of hydration breaks throughout the day πŸ₯€ there was great teamwork and friendship seen on the day especially as we meet children that were not with the club but attended school and the club on other occasions. πŸ‘­
A super trip day was enjoyed playing on all the great play resources at the park.

Thursday - another busy day with football fun ⚽, den making β›Ί role playing with the dolls πŸ§‘β€πŸΌπŸΌ chess tournaments β™ŸοΈ visit to the park and doing some wood craft art. πŸͺ΅

Week 5 - Round up of the week

Monday - the children chose to do hama beads as the weather was wet 🌧️ as well as dodge ball in the physical area ⚽

Tuesday - another rainy day 🌧️ so we couldn't go and do some tree climbing 😞 the children played football ⚽ and got creative with pom pom art and canvas painting πŸ–ŒοΈ 🎨 We did go to the park in the afternoon but got caught out with a heavy rain shower which the children thought was funny, the staff didn't though πŸ˜‚

Wednesday - trip day at the The Scottish Deer Centre & Wildlife Park Featuring: Muddy Boots where thankfully the sun 🌞 returned the children had great fun in the outdoor and indoor play areas. They as always love the bouncy pillow. They were amazed at the difference in size between the snowy owl and the tiny burrowing owl πŸ¦‰. They all found the bear standing up and having a good back scratch on the rock hilarious 🐻

Thursday - the morning was spent doing some mosaic crafts and a visit to the park as the sunny made an appearance again πŸ‘ hopefully it will still be shining this afternoon so the children can enjoy sports session on the grass at the park. I wonder who can keep their egg on their spoon to win the race πŸ₯šπŸ₯„ πŸ₯‡

Have a lovely weekend and we will see next week for the final week of the holidays. Yes parents the final week πŸŽ‰ ❀️

Remember we are also open the 2 in-service days and currently have a few spaces left
