Holiday Club

The activity opportunities are fun, fun and more fun with the children having a choice of what to do when at our holiday club.

We believe in providing an age-appropriate, child-led environment for children aged 4-14 years old. Our dedicated team ensures a safe and welcoming atmosphere where each child can explore new interests, build friendships, and enjoy a variety of engaging activities tailored to different age groups.

Any child from any school can attend our holiday club, but they must be as a minimum in a school reception class at the time of booking.

To make a booking for our holiday club please register your child and you will then be able to book a place through your parent portal. Should you require any assistance during the registration process, our support team is on hand to help with any queries you may have.
