Our holiday camp is ‘twinned’ with the Shoe4Africa Children’s hospital in Eldoret, Kenya. We send them videos and resources of our activities and use a percentage of our takings to buy equipment to allow them to replicate our programmes.

Schedules
Last year’s summer camp schedules to give you an idea of what to expect. We will publish new ones once we are clear on the sorts of activities we are allowed to do and numbers of children we can cater for.
Select a day you require on the left, then choose the ticket type and number of tickets you require that day. Keep adding any additional days and tickets to your basket then proceed to checkout, following instructions (especially the ones in green!) as you go…
Bulk Discount: A 15% discount is automatically applied to all purchases of 5+ tickets
Friend Referrals: For every friend you refer to the camps, that hasn’t previously attended, you will receive a £5 voucher for your next booking. Simply get them to put your name upon answering the referral question at the checkout.
TrY-Sports and Fitness Customers: If you or your child currently participates in a TrY-Sports and Fitness session, use the code ‘TSF’ to receive £5 off your booking (NB applies to the whole booking, not individual tickets).
Tweens: 12-16 year olds get half price admission to camps. Whilst they will have the freedom to join in with the camp activities, we will also, at times, designate them special responsibilities and tasks to assist the younger children on camp.
- A packed lunch, named water bottle and a snack for break time – extra water and healthy snacks will be provided throughout the day. We endeavour to promote healthy eating throughout the camp and award stickers for ‘3 healthy things’ in lunchboxes.
- Spare clothing for rainy days (or water fights in the spring/summer!)
- Sun cream, sun hats and sun glasses for sunny days
- Please wear sports shoes and sportswear that is suitable for an active and adventurous day!
All coaches working on the Summer Camp are qualified and insured to work with children, each holding an up-to-date DBS certificate (formerly CRB). They all have experience working with younger age groups and have been especially selected both for their coaching abilities and professional yet friendly and caring manner with children.
Ofsted regulations state that childcare can only be offered to under 5 year olds for half a day. Please contact us to discuss alternative arrangements should you require care for a full day.

No! Bookings are totally flexible allowing for as many or as few days as you would like, as well as half day (any 4hrs) and extra time (until up to 6pm) options.
Do you accept childcare vouchers?
Unfortunately not. In order to qualify we have to be Ofsted registered and, as other people can use the facilities, we don’t meet their criteria.
Can I change my booking?
Yes! It is possible for you to manage your own booking by logging into your account on our booking system and selecting ‘Ticket Options’ (we can also do it for you if you struggle). There is no charge for changing your booking. It is also possible for you to cancel your bookings. Any outstanding balances will be refunded in line with our terms and conditions.
