The aim of the Ficino After School Care Programme is to provide a relaxing, happy, and good quality environment. With a focus on good company and creative activities, we are keen that the programme feels different from a school day - relaxing and easy - and that the children enjoy creative, inspiring and valuable activities together.
Parents value the time that their children spend with us because the children go home refreshed, happy, and well-fed with their homework already completed. FASC runs between 3pm and 5.45pm every day of the school year excluding final Prizegiving Day.

Here's what our parents have to say
- Kids are very settled, very pleased indeed
- The girls adore the yummy afternoon teas - a real 'treat' and 'substantial'
- Variety of different activities, just great
- My girls love the arts and crafts
- They thoroughly enjoyed all the gym and sports equipment being available
- Adored being with their friends / class mates
- We're extremely happy with FASC. Our son felt somewhat nervous around the older kids at his old after school programme. Now he seems so happy without feeling threatened in any way. In fact I think the exposure to the older Ficino children is great for him - great role models.
