Holiday Fun Returns This Summer!

The Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme will be running next month and we’re excited to welcome all children for a summer full of creativity, fun and nutritious food.

We’ve got a fantastic line-up of activities planned, including arts and crafts, games, themed weeks, and hands-on workshops – all completely free for eligible children.

Children who are not registered for school meals are still very welcome to attend. Please note, there will be a daily fee of £15. Every session includes a healthy meal and a safe, friendly space for children to enjoy the holidays.

Whether you’ve joined us before or it’s your first time, everyone is welcome, just bring your energy, imagination, and appetite for fun!

We’re Turning 20, Come Celebrate With Us!

🎉We’re proud to be celebrating our 20th anniversary this summer – a huge milestone made possible by the amazing families, staff, and community who’ve supported us over the years. To mark the occasion, we’ll be hosting a day of fun activities including a family-friendly Zumba session, henna & face painting, games, and more. It’s our way of saying thank you for being part of our journey.

Everyone is welcome to come along and celebrate 20 wonderful years with us.

Drop in, join the fun and help us make this a day to remember! We can’t wait to host you!🎉
