A week-full of activities!
Our children's Holiday Club has been running for years and is loved by children and parents. Attracting comments from parents like “I love your holiday Club, my child comes home full of stories, eats all their dinner and then falls asleep!” It’s like sending your child to an Activity Centre for a week but a lot cheaper. Drop off and pick up around work times.

Sorry there are no discounts for siblings or multiple weeks.
We are unable to accept Childcare vouchers as we make use of a public building with shared toilet facilities.
Schedule - 4 days following a BH Monday and 5 days all other weeks
This is the ideal plan, but activities often need to change to accommodate: high/fast river, wet day, younger or older balance of children, or tiredness and behaviour as week progresses. We do not refund you if you don’t get the day you think you booked.
Every morning children are put into a team of 10 others from around their age and stay in those teams all day and rotate around the activities. Each session is between 1 hour and 1h30mins with breaks and lunch in between. They do the activities listed in their team, to enable better socialisation and staff support.

Children that are sociable, like to run around in woods and don’t mind getting wet, muddy or falling down.
Boys and girls – some weeks there are more girls than boys, sometimes it’s the other way around. We work hard to make it inclusive and encouraging for both.
Year Group 3-7 ( remember it is an Outdoor Club all day so you need to feel confident that younger ages are resilient enough)
