May Make & Take: Make Your Own Sports Bottle - Tue 26th May
Children will unleash their creativity by designing their very own reusable sports bottle! Using bold colours, fun patterns, and inspiration from their favourite team or country, they’ll create a unique, personalised bottle they can proudly use all week long. It’s a fantastic way to combine creativity, self-expression, and a sense of ownership. Please note: a small additional charge of £4.95 applies to our Make & Take experience.
How Does the Split Programme Work?
Each day begins and ends at your usual Holiday HQ drop-off point, with children split into their age groups to maximise their experience. Groups come together for snacks and lunch before returning to their sessions. On Fridays - all children will join our seasonal theme - World Cup!
