Let your child play in nature within our unique outdoor woodland setting

Discover the magic of our woodland outdoor area.

Let your imagination run wild amongst the trees, as you embark on new adventures and make lasting memories.

At Off Grid After School, we're not just an after school - we are part of the Off Grid Community.

Join us in exploring the wonders of being in nature, where every moment is a chance to learn and grow.

Welcome to our

After School!

Our after-school program runs Monday through Thursday until 5:50 pm, term time only.

We collect from:

Carolside, Busby and St Joseph’s Primary walking down to Off Grid Community Woodlands;

Giffnock and Kirkhill Primary using transport

Is your school not on this list or you don’t need childcare; don’t worry, you can have your child brought to us and use us as a fantastic after school club to burn off all that energy built up at school!!

We utilise two on-site cabins for changing and indoor activities, ensuring a comfortable experience regardless of the weather.

We have toilets and fresh water available in the woodland setting.

Our spacious outdoor area offers endless possibilities for activities like running, playing games, building dens, cooking over a fire, gardening, loose part play, and even swinging from trees. Plus, being outside means ample Vitamin D exposure, and on rainy days, you can rest assured that you won't be the ones getting soaked!

The advantages of outdoor play are numerous:

1. Creativity: Outdoor play sparks imagination.

2. Social Skills: Kids learn cooperation and communication.

3. Happiness: Nature reduces stress and boosts mood.

4. Sensory Development: Outdoor play engages all senses.

5. Nature Appreciation: Children learn about nature and encourage them to protect it.

6. Physical Health: Outdoor play promotes movement.

7. Discovery: Kids explore wildlife and the environment.

8. Resilience: Facing challenges outdoors and builds strength.

Our after-school program not only offers a rich outdoor experience but also provides practicality and flexibility for parents.

We accept childcare vouchers, and our payment system operates on a monthly basis, with amounts varying depending on the number of days your child attends each week.

Whether it's just one day or all four, our booking system is designed to accommodate your needs seamlessly.
