What's on offer?
During the Easter, summer and Christmas school holidays, we work with schools, sports and activity providers, and community organisations to offer a wide range of activities through the government-funded Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme.
Children and young people taking part will also receive a free healthy meal each day.
Activities include:
- multi-sports
- dance and music
- arts and crafts
- drama
- cookery
- and much more.
There are activities to suit different ages, abilities and interests.
Who can attend?
The HAF programme is for children and young people from Reception to Year 11 who are eligible for Targeted Free School Meals.
Find out more about eligibility and how to apply on our Free school meals eligibility page.
Some holiday clubs can support children with low to medium levels of special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Places are considered by each club based on the individual needs of the child.
There are also SEND-specific clubs for children and young people with higher support needs. You can find these on the booking website.
Please contact the individual club directly if you have questions about the support they can provide.
