Established since 1995
A group of volunteer working parents established CLASP as a Private Limited Company to provide much-needed after-school care in Leith. This then in turn created our non-profit status and a Committee was elected. Big thank you to those 12 volunteers. CLASP is committed to creating a high-quality, child-led play environment where children thrive through fun, creativity and exploration. We aim to support families in Leith by offering affordable and reliable after-school and holiday childcare that nurtures every child’s potential.
To find out more about our Charity status and the current Committee members, who are also the board of trustees please visit the OSCR website.
Moved to Leith Primary School
In 2003, CLASP moved from Leith Community Centre to Leith Primary School with amazing support from the Head Teacher. We have remained here since :)
Our growth
We have grown so much since we have opened in 1995 and can now hold up to 70 children a day. We registered with the Care Inspectorate in 2011. To download our latest report, click ‘download now’.
Fundraising
From being supported by Leith Chooses to Jordan, our deputy manager doing a run to raise funds, CLASP has so many creative ideas on how to raise funds for new resources.
The 2023 Christmas raffle was a hit. The girls didn’t let any parent/carer past without asking them for raffle tickets! In 2025 we did both a Christmas raffle and a stall at the Leith Primary Parent Committee Christmas Fair.
