Fredrikshov's after school care (fritids) is available to students in grades F–4 on all regular school days and during shorter holidays. The after school club (klubben) is for students in grades 5-6 and is primarily for activities such as homework support.
Through meaningful activities we contribute to students’ lifelong learning! The school works together with fritids and the two departments interact all throughout the school day. Through curiosity and joy we prepare the children in the best way for the future.
Playful challenges at fritids
At Fredrikshovs slotts skola we have high standards, and aim to challenge both ourselves and our students. This naturally applies to fritids as well. Since 2016, fritids have had their own curriculum, which we actively work with at all times. All activities in fritids are planned, and the schedule is made available to students and parents to highlight the skills and knowledge we focus on during each activity. A typical week at Fredrikshov's fritids offers many different activities. Choir, sewing workshop, theatre, ball games, dance, programming, art, and much more may be on the agenda. We also make use of the incredible cultural and natural resources right on our doorstep. Approximately once a week we go on an excursion.
At fritids we actively work with morals and values as well as the students’ social skills. At the start of every week we have a Monday gathering where we go through this week’s activities, talk about how we act towards each other and also appoint the “friend of the week”, to someone who has been a good friend. Every class also has a dialogue group that are given the opportunity to discuss any current issues or events.
We also work with break activities. During each longer break, children are offered the opportunity to participate in an organized game. This can range from simple tag to more challenging activities where students practice teamwork, problem-solving and logical thinking, such as mission bingo or treasure hunts. The purpose of these break activities is to encourage children to play with new friends at school and to challenge them with activities they may not have tried before.
Klubben – for our older students
For the older students in grades 5-6, we offer Klubben. In addition to a daily afternoon snack, it includes homework support and a course in advanced English taught by qualified teachers.
