We offer before and after-school sessions Monday to Friday at St. Barnabas Church. Before school sessions start from 7.30am until the start of the school day, and after school sessions from school finishing time until 6.00pm.

Meet the Leader
Hi, I’m Katie, Setting Manager at Toast & Tea, Weeke
As a mum of two young children myself I know how important it is to find flexible childcare that is safe, engaging and nurturing. When I first started as a Childcare Assistant at Toast and Tea I very quickly came to realise that the children had a real sense of belonging at the Weeke setting and that they had developed really positive relationships with the other children and the grown ups. As the Setting Manager, I aim to put the Toast & Tea vision and values at the heart of everything I do.
It is a great place to work and the families are just so lovely.
Our Clubs
We offer breakfast and after-school sessions at our out-of-school setting at Toast & Tea Weeke, along with a holiday club at the Log Cabin on Stockbridge Road.
Breakfast Club
Our breakfast sessions begin at 7.30am. The children enjoy a nutritious breakfast, eaten together at around 8.00am. The children then put on high-vis vests and we walk them safely to school using our rope system.
After-school Club
Our after-school sessions begin at school collection time and finish at 6.00pm. We collect the children directly from school and walk them safely to St. Barnabas using our rope system. The children have a snack when we arrive, then later eat a delicious hot meal sat down together, typically at around 5.00pm.
If your child takes part in any school sports and activity clubs, we will be very happy to collect them from the school club at its finishing time and walk them to our Toast & Tea setting.
Holiday Club
We also run a holiday club at the Log Cabin on Stockbridge Road, Winchester. Visit the Holiday Club page to find out more and to book your space!

Walking To & From School
Our Toast & Tea out-of-school setting is a short walk from the school, so parents are naturally keen to know how we get our children safely to and from school.
We provide high-vis vests for our children to wear all year round. You can’t miss a Toast & Tea child! We take a register before we leave for school in the morning and have a register for pick-up after-school, so we know we have all the children with us before we start walking. The children then walk slowly along the pavement together, all holding on to our safety rope at all times. There is always an adult at the front and back of the rope. We are often referred to as ‘The Walking Bus’!
This short walk is a great opportunity for us to keep talking to the children about safe road behaviour.
Food
Good nutrition is a vital part of a child’s day. We offer all our children a healthy, balanced breakfast before school and a hot meal at our after-school clubs. Our settings have facilities that allow us to prepare food freshly and hygienically. We also make sure children sit down together at tables to enjoy their food.
If your child has any special dietary requirements, preferences or food allergies we will ask for these on the registration form before they begin. We are able to cater for your child’s dietary needs and will adjust the food on offer where needed.
Our menu may alter slightly from week to week. Please find below an example of what Toast & Tea children can enjoy.
Requesting / Withdrawing a Space
New to Toast & Tea
We are always excited to welcome new children to Toast & Tea. If you would like to request a space for your child at Toast & Tea Weeke, please download and complete our registration form.
Withdrawing Your Space
We also understand circumstances change. So, if your child is currently with us and you would like to cancel a space or withdraw completely, please send us an email to confirm. Let us know the child’s name and which spaces you would like to cancel.
The notice period for withdrawing your place is one calendar month. Fees will be payable until the last session has been attended.
Reception Year Starters September 2024
Your child starting school for the first time is both an exciting and nerve-wracking moment! For many parents, we know working out how to smoothly balance school hours with working hours can be a big source of worry. That is, of course, exactly why Toast & Tea was set up, to give needed out-of-school support to families.
While school spaces are not officially confirmed until April, we are happy for you to register interest in advance.
If your child is starting school in September 2024 and you would like to book breakfast and/or after-school sessions at Toast & Tea Weeke, please complete the registration form below and email it to us. We ask for a non-refundable deposit of £30 at the time of sending – this is the fairest way to ensure everyone registering has a genuine interest in the space, as we are often over-subscribed.
If your child starts with us, this £30 will be deducted from their first invoice.
In the event that, unfortunately, your child does not get a space at Weeke Primary School, we will of course refund your deposit.
Fees & Financing
Our breakfast clubs are £8 per session. This includes a healthy, balanced breakfast.
Our after-school clubs are £13 per session. This includes a hot meal and range of activities, including time to reflect on the day with an adult.
Fees are payable monthly in advance, with a £30 deposit payable with the registration form. We do accept childcare vouchers. Your voucher provider will want to know our Ofsted number, which is 2607487.
