Making a Booking
Booking requests are submitted using the online booking form on The Tamariki Club’s webpage. Responsibility for the details of bookings and payment lies with the person making the initial booking. If the session you require is fully booked, you will be placed on a waiting list. In the event of a space becoming available, The Tamariki Club will contact you.
7 days’ notice is required for cancellation and refund of a confirmed place at all sessions. No refund will be given with less than 7 days’ notice - this also applies to sickness.
If your child is absent from school and is due to attend The De La Salle After School Club, you must advise The Tamariki Club as soon as possible, either by phone, text or email.
Payment
All accounts must be paid in full and in advance for the participant to attend a session. Our preferred method of payment is internet banking, although accounts may also be settled in cash or by cheque. You will be emailed your account in advance for each term block. Payment can be made either weekly, monthly or in full – if paying weekly or monthly, all due dates are listed clearly on the invoice.
If paying online, please state your invoice number in the reference box.
Our internet banking details are as follows:
A/C Name: The Tamariki Club A/C Number: 52770008 Sort Code: 40-25-34
Late Pick-Up Charge
Children must be collected latest by the end of your session, i.e. 5.30pm. If a child is collected late and after their allocated session time, then a £20 late pick-up fee will be added to your account for that day to cover the extra costs incurred for 2 staff working overtime.
Medication
We are not able to administer any non-prescription medication including Calpol and Piriton.
In the event of a child requiring prescribed medication, parents must give written permission for it to be administered. You should be specific in terms of the name of the medication, dosage, frequency and storage. All medication must be in the original packaging and include the pharmacist’s/GP’s prescription label, this includes asthma inhalers.
Tax Certificates
As The De La Salle After School Club is registered with the Childcare & Early Years Services (CEYS), we are able to provide tax certificates for child care fees paid during the year. Please email to let us know if you require a tax certificate.
Personal Property
All personal property is the participants’ responsibility, unless loss or damage is proven to be due to The Tamariki Club’s negligence. Expensive and/or treasured items should not be brought to the club.
Meals and Snacks
During the Covid-19 pandemic period, The Tamariki Club will not be able to provide any snacks to the children, this is to reduce the risk of cross-contamination at this time. Parents should ensure that their child has an extra snacks for their time at the after school club. This will be reviewed as restrictions ease up for after school clubs.
Travel off Island during the Coronavirus Pandemic
If parents and/or children are travelling back into Jersey, you must make yourself aware of the current Government procedures with regards to testing and/or self-isolation.
Until the required border test results have been received by The Tamariki Club, or the required self-isolation period has passed, parents must not bring their child into Tamariki.
We would highly recommend that you have alternative childcare cover organised to cover the period from arriving in to Jersey, and waiting for your test results to be received.
It is the responsibility of all parents to inform The Tamariki Club if they have been off Island anytime in the previous 14 days before their child is due to start at Tamariki, or, if they are planning to go off Island and then intend to bring their child in to the club after. We would prefer that we have this information ahead of time, so that we can ensure parents fully understand what they need to do on their return.
Session Changes or Cancellations by The Tamariki Club
The Tamariki Club reserves the right to change session specifications wherever necessary. A full refund will be provided in the unlikely event of the session being cancelled by The Tamariki Club.
Where there has been an official announcement of the closure of the school due to adverse weather conditions or any other reason other than the Coronavirus (e.g. school strikes), either by the Education Department, or by De La Salle Primary School itself, or any other authoritative body, The Tamariki Club will not be liable to reimburse fees for that particular session (or sessions).
Session Changes – During the Coronavirus Pandemic
If the Government of Jersey, or the Contact Tracing Team, or any other relevant authoritative body, deem it necessary for any child attending to self-isolate due to Coronavirus (whether that is an individual, small group, or the entire club attendance), or the club is closed down due to ‘Stay at Home’ orders (‘lockdown’) or similar, then The Tamariki Club will not be liable for a refund of fees, or credit of fees to accounts, and will instead apply our usual minimum 7 days’ notice cancellation policy.
This means, that we will treat the required self-isolation of any children, or the forced closure of the club, with 7 days’ notice conditions on all relevant bookings, and parents will receive a credit to their account for any fees paid past the 7 days period. This credit will be available to use for any future booking, either for the after school club or the holiday club; there will be no cash refunds issued as an alternative to the credit refund to your account.
Insurance
All participants are covered by Public Liability Insurance whilst at the clubs, however The Tamariki Club cannot be held responsible for any act, omission or loss or damage unless proven to be caused specifically by the club’s negligence.
First Aid
There will always be at least one Certified Appointed First Aider at each session. In the event of an accident, first aid will be administered to participants in our care and, if necessary, the emergency services will be called.
Exclusion after Sickness
If your child is unwell at home with sickness and/or diarrhoea, they should be kept at home for a minimum of 48 hours following the last episode of illness. If they are sick and/or have diarrhoea at the club, there must be a minimum period of 48 hours following the last episode before they return to the club. We ask that your child must be well enough to eat a normal diet when they return.
Exclusion after Sickness – During the Coronavirus Pandemic
If your child or any member of your household shows symptoms of Coronavirus at home, do not bring them in to Tamariki. You should immediately contact the Coronavirus Helpline for advice, and contact The Tamariki Club as soon as possible after this to let them know the outcome of this conversation.
If your child has been sent home from Tamariki with suspected symptoms of Coronavirus, then you must:
- Immediately isolate yourself and your household.
- Call the Coronavirus Helpline (tel. 01534-445566).
- Follow the advice of the helpline, and as soon as possible, advise The Tamariki Club of the outcome of the discussion with the helpline.
Departure
Each participant must be signed out at the end of each session. It is the responsibility of parents/ guardians/ authorised person to ensure they always comply with these procedures.
Photography
During sessions, photographs may be taken of participants during course activities. These images may be used for publicity purposes in an image, on video, on our website, in printed publications or on our Facebook page. If you do not wish your child’s image to be used please indicate on the booking form.
Equal Opportunities
We consider language, behaviour or action that is designed to be offensive or creates discrimination to any user of the clubs or member of staff, unacceptable and will not be tolerated. If any behaviour at the club is considered inappropriate, the offending pupil or pupils will be given a clear warning. If the behaviour persists, the child or children will be removed from the activity.
If a pupil continues to ignore the staff member and is considered to be affecting the equilibrium of the whole session, then a parent will be called and the pupil asked to leave, and/or will have to miss the next session they are due in.
Data Protection
The information we collect is only for the purpose of processing your booking and providing the childcare service, we only collect necessary information to fulfil this purpose. This information will be kept for as long as is necessary to meet our regulatory requirements. We use third-party suppliers to help provide this service, all third party suppliers meet the new GDPR guidelines. We protect your information with a combination of technical and organisational security measures.
Disclosure of Information with regards to the Coronavirus Pandemic
If we are required to provide information to the Contact Tracing Team, the Coronavirus Helpline, or the Government of Jersey during the Coronavirus pandemic, then The Tamariki Club will share only the relevant and specific information requested and for this purpose only. At present, the information that we can be requested is related to who was in the premises at a particular time, who may have been in close contact with the particular individual, names, and contact phone numbers.
