AN OUT-of-hours club for children with working parents has been launched at a Derwentside school.
Dipton Out-of-Hours Club is designed to take care of children before and after teaching hours at Dipton Colliery Primary School.
Run by Gillian Raine, the scheme means children will be able to get breakfast in the mornings and food and play activities at tea time.
Headteacher Carol Wilson said: "This is ideal when parents want to go back to work but have no care facilities.
"There is the chance to remain at school from 7.30 in the morning to 6.30 at night.
