The dates and times that we will be open are as follows:

27th July to 20th August, Monday to Thursday 12noon to 4pm.

We are coming up to the Summer Holiday soon! Please register for our summer programme as soon as possible!

Parents or families who are on benefit related free school meals will receive a code via text or email for each eligible child.

Please be aware that codes are sent via Holiday Activities. For any enquiries regarding families who are unsure if they qualify for BRFSM, they will need to contact their schools for confirmation.

We also have limited paid spaces for families without the HAF vouchers, so please let me know if you need one.

We look forward to seeing you this Summer!
