Leisure club at Pumpestationen

The contact educators conduct a well-being assessment (screening) of each child after 3 months in the club. Should there be any points where the child is in the yellow or red zone, action plans are implemented - which the contact educators work with. This is to identify the circumstances and make relevant efforts to ensure that all children who have joined the club have the best possible conditions for well-being. They are assessed based on the following themes: basic mood, conflicts, social relationships (community), social skills, health, contact, motor skills, language and parental co-operation. A well-being assessment form is used, which can be downloaded above.

General questions regarding the well-being assessment can be directed to our screening coordinator Andreas Fløde, andreas@pumpestationen.dk

When your child has been at Pumpestationen for 3 months, you have the opportunity to ask for a well-being interview. The meeting will initially take place with the child's contact teacher, where we will go through the child's general well-being in the club, the transition to the club, friendships and community, social skills and any special comments. The period in which the well-being interviews are held is announced in our newsletter.

Following the well-being assessments, the contact teachers conduct well-being interviews with all children in their respective classes. Our approach is holistic, where all aspects of the child's life are discussed and questioned: Well-being in clubs, friendships, social and academic well-being at school, community life and more. This provides a great starting point for assessing the child's well-being, while the child experiences a confidential forum with an attentive contact teacher.

Access the parent portal here.

The username is the email address you provided in the account records. You will receive a welcome email with a password for the parent portal no later than a couple of weeks after the club starts. If you havn't received a login, it may be because the email with login information has ended up in your spam filter. It may also be because we do not have your correct email address in our system (this may also be the case even if you receive our newsletter).

Questions regarding parent login and login details can be directed to Jonas at jonas@pumpestationen.dk or by phone 35 26 39 62.

At the start of the club, we teach children how to sign up for activities. They usually do this by signing up on the registration lists on the notice board at the information desk (Infoen). However, not all activities require you to sign up in advance. Often you can just turn up and jump into the activity.

Activities that require a binding enrolment and/or a certain amount of co-payment will require a parent to enrol their child. This applies to e.g. horse riding and colonies. These types of activities will be announced in our weekly newsletter, which will also include information on how to register and to whom.

At the start of the club, each class is assigned a contact teacher. The contact teacher's job is to introduce their class to the club and build relationships with the children, parents and schools. If you need to talk to an educator about your child's well-being, you can always contact your child's contact educator or deputy manager Sanne Thorvil. Find your child's contact teacher here.

In 4th grade, class trips are organised at least once every two months, where the contact teacher organises an excursion for the contact class. Here, the children have the opportunity to get to know their contact teacher better and vice versa. Each child also has the opportunity to have a child well-being interview.
