HOLIDAY CLUBS - ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW

At our HOLIDAY CLUBS we can really get stuck into our most immersive and exciting activities. We know it can be daunting for children to spend a whole day with new people, that’s why we always ensure they get a warm welcome and that we get fun and simple team games running straight away.   Watching children’s confidence grow and new friendships form during our holiday clubs is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

We have a great range of entertaining activities planned each holiday.  

AGE:  Clubs are suitable for children Age 5  (Yr 1) up to the age of 12 (for OFSTED purposes children need to be 5 years old AND IN SCHOOL YEAR 1. NERF Activity Days - we strongly advise Age 6+ for these days due to Nerf being of a more competitive nature.  Please ensure your child enjoys this activity as it will be the main one of the day.

TO BOOK:  Choose a location to see what clubs are running in your area, prices and the activity schedules. Book and pay online and a confirmation email with full details of your booking will be sent to you. Flexible booking - book for a day or for a full week.  

WHAT WE DO  We're all about playing outdoors whatever the weather, being silly, having fun, making new friends and learning some new skills! Every day is different, we run specific activities in small groups throughout the day - games, learning skills, communicating, making, playing & creating memories. A non-competitive environment, with activities throughout the holidays to suit everyone from the quiet and methodical to the louder and livelier.   We encourage a supportive and happy environment where the children can build friendships, succeed at new tasks and feel relaxed in an open green space. We encourage physical "green" exercise throughout our gameplay to promote health and wellbeing.

When our activity involves cooking on the campfire, we always provide alternatives for allergies and dietary requirements.  Please alert the leader to any relevant information and medicine regarding this when signing in.
