Sportstuif Wijk en Aalburg

Strengths

• Complete pedagogical policy plan with concrete descriptions of all required aspects
• Good foundation for safety and health policy, including action plan and house rules
• Spacious accommodation with sufficient indoor space (147 m²) and very generous outdoor space (more than 500 m² plus a 6,500 m² training field)
• Valid certificates of conduct (Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag/VOG) for the operator and board members
• Registered with the recognised Disputes Committee for Childcare (Geschillencommissie Kinderopvang)

Shortcomings

• Further specification and updating of policy and implementation required before operations begin
• Safety and health policy contains items not applicable to this location and is still missing some components
• Domestic violence and child abuse reporting protocol (melcode) is currently process-oriented and needs to be restructured to be more decision-oriented
• Appropriate furnishing of the spaces still needs to be arranged

Summary

GGD West-Brabant conducted a registration inspection on 18 May 2026 at Sportstuif Wijk en Aalburg, a new after-school care (buitenschoolse opvang/BSO) operated by Sportstuif Kinderopvang B.V. in the municipality of Altena. The location accommodates up to 42 children (ages 4–13) in the sports canteen of Sportvereniging NOAD'32, with ample indoor and outdoor spaces. All assessed quality requirements have been met. Several points of attention were discussed that the operator will address before commencing operations, including further specification of policy, updating of the domestic violence reporting protocol (from process-oriented to decision-oriented), and appropriate furnishing of the spaces. No violations were identified and no recovery offer was made.
