Shipton Buddies was established in September 2006, after Shipton Bellinger Primary School and Hampshire County Council decided to set up a club to help with wrap around care for working parent and carers and to assist with the local community. Named by our schoolchildren, we work hard to ensure the school is provisioned with all childcare in place. Based close by but separately from school grounds, we give children an emotional respite at the end of the school day. We offer a walking bus to and from Shipton Bellinger Primary School, and we also cater to pre-school children.
