Summary

Sport BSO Avesteyn in Heeswijk-Dinther has been inspected for registration as a new after-school care (BSO) for 45 children (ages 4-13). The Municipal Health Service (GGD) concludes that the operation reasonably complies with the Childcare Act. There was one issue: the original application for 50 places could not be approved because the bar area may not be counted in the square meters, leaving sufficient space for only 45 children. The holder remedied this immediately by making a new calculation. Furthermore, a safety risk was identified regarding alcohol in the canteen; the holder remedied this by placing a cover over the tap and locks on the refrigerators. All other areas (pedagogical climate, staff, safety, accommodation, parental rights) meet the requirements. A post-registration inspection will follow within three months of opening.
