• The domestic violence and child abuse reporting protocol (melcode) has been adequately established and is discussed annually

Summary

Sinne after-school care (BSO) Sint Thomas in Leeuwarden was inspected on 10 February 2026 by GGD Fryslân. This was an annual inspection for 116 childcare places divided across six base groups (ages 4-13). The location largely meets the statutory quality requirements. One violation was identified regarding pedagogical policy: the absence of a concrete description for managing base groups during activities with more than thirty children. The holder remedied this within the set timeframe by adding an amendment to the policy plan. The pedagogical practice, personnel matters, safety, and parent committee meet the requirements. The GGD advises no enforcement action.
