Information for parents
All Saints Out of School Club also known as ASOOSC was set up 8 years
ago by 2 parents who needed childcare after school. We were based in one
of the local schools. When the schools were reorganised in Otley, our
school was closed so we moved into the newly refurbished Cross Green Youth
Centre on Pool Road. As the years have gone by the club has grown immensely,
we are now registered for 48 children for after school and Holiday Club.
We are registered with Ofsted and Leeds City Council Early Years and affiliated
to 4 Kids.

The club is managed by a voluntary committee which comprises of parents
whose children attend the club. Parents are encouraged to join the committee
and be actively involved in the running of the club.
What do we do?
ASOOSC is the provision of a safe, caring environment offering a range of active, stimulating and restful activities for school age children after school and during holidays. After school care enables parents to take up employment, education and training opportunities.We provide quality, reliable, affordable after school care and Holiday Club for children aged 4 to 11 years from Otley and surrounding areas, in a warm caring environment. We also offer breakfast club for children attending All Saints Primary School. The children can take part in a wide range of recreational, social, educational and fun activities such as baking, crafts, pool, table tennis, indoor and outdoor games and much more......... Children can choose whether or not to participate in organised activities or to initiate their own. We have a quiet area where the children can relax or read a book, a homework room where the children can do their homework away from the main room and a tv and video/dvd area where the children can watch tv or a film. Our club is bright and spacious with the benefit of a secure outdoor playground. We know that young people learn best through play and by providing high quality equipment and highly trained staff we can help them to develop creative and manipulative skills in a happy informal environment. Security is our priority and premises, policies and procedures are all designed to ensure peace of mind for parents. The children are given a healthy snack when they arrive at the club.
