What to expect

What to expect at School Holiday Club

Every day is different! There will be plenty of hide and seek, capture the flag and the freedom to enjoy running around, climbing and exploring (in fact parents thank us because their child is always ready for bedtime!).

Each day we try or perfect a new skill – from crafting a peg or mallet to using tools to create a woodland band of merry men with swords and bows and arrows. Pirate themed treasure hunts teach map reading and problem solving. Collecting water, learning signaling with light and sound and protecting yourself from the elements are all vital survival skills.

Risk is a big part of adventure play for children, but all the risks have been carefully assessed so that your child can experience a sense of accomplishment, from firelighting to cooking over a campfire and from our woodland assault course (as challenging as their ability allows) to carving their own whistles and Kazoos.

Summary of activities: 

Cooking: Marshmallows, damper bread, smores, popcorn

Tools: Bow saw, bill hook, sheaf knife, loppers

Woodcraft: Peg, mallet, kazoo/whistles, bow and arrow

Skills: Firelighting, survival, first aid, map reading
