All Stars

All Stars Youth Club is for young people aged 7 to 10 years and is open on Wednesday's from 5.15pm to 7.45pm

All Stars sessions are for young people aged 7- 10 years where they take part in a wide range of activities and workshops aimed at teaching the young people new skills whilst having a great time. They can make use of our climbing wall at no extra cost with our qualified climbing instructor, which is great for developing their strength and stamina, increasing their co-ordination and in turn building confidence and self-esteem.

Young people can get involved in a range of activities including:

  • Climbing Wall
  • Cooking workshops*
  • Arts and Crafts
  • Xbox and Arcadia Games
  • Pool
  • Table Tennis
  • Air Hockey
  • Table Football
  • Games
  • Trips out*
  • Karaoke
  • Disco

*These activities can sometimes incur an additional small charge to cover costs of materials, ingredients, entry fees, diesel etc. but this is notified in advance where possible. We subsidise activities whenever possible.

We operate a no bullying policy and we are very strict with this. We are aware that bullying can occur within all environments and we actively encourage the young people to speak up if they see or experience any form of bullying, this would then be dealt with quickly.

The Youthy is open throughout all of the school holidays with the exception of bank holidays and Christmas, when we are closed between Christmas and New Year.

Guidance for parents and carers

The All Stars Youth Club has a locked door policy and all young people must be brought and collected by an adult or named person as specified on their membership form. This session is very hands on and interactive, with age appropriate activities.

We work hard to provide a safe environment for all young people who attend. All staff and volunteers are enhanced CRB cleared and have completed safeguarding training. All staff are qualified or working towards a minimum level 2 qualification in youth work. Our resident climbing wall instructor is fully CRB cleared and SPA trained to be able to deliver climbing wall instruction. We have a number of qualified first aiders on site at all times. All staff who deliver cooking workshops are trained in Food Safety in Catering. The programme is managed by the Youth Participation Manager, who is qualified in Youth Work. We have a level 2 qualified Football coach. Staff have completed a course on bullying awareness and e-safety. Risk assessments are carried out before activities commence and prior to trips out of the centre. In addition some of the staff have completed a Fire Safety and Training course as per the regulatory reform (Fire Safety) order 2005.

The building is checked on a daily basis to ensure full operation of the emergency lighting, fire alarms and fire exits. The building is checked weekly to ensure that all smoke detectors are operational. Young people are made aware of all fire exits and assembly points when they join The Youthy.

We like to encourage parental feedback and suggestions.
