Adventure & Childcare....


Adventure & Childcare are not usually two words that are associated together, but here they seem to be!

As you maybe aware, throughout the Summer Holidays there is a suite of adventures, projects and days to entertain you and your children, grand children, nieces, nephews and friends!

We have had a smashing start with some successful events such as the Mad Hatters Tea Party, a great turn out, the weather was kind, great games and super fancy dress. 

Then there was National Playday, an event held in our village (not the woods) where 240 children and goodness knows how many adults came to play and celebrate the 25th anniversary of the National Campaign to support children's right to play.


This week finally saw the first Wet & Wild Adventure Camp get off the ground, it has been talked about for years, so it was smashing to hear the young people describe it as "awesome, epic, scary, brilliant, the best...etc etc" and want to do it every holiday for the whole holiday...see where I am coming from when i mentioned Adventure and Childcare!! I am stunned at how much we crammed in to three days..topped off with Fish & Chips on the last night on a quiet headland watching dolphins feast in the shores below us...just MAGIC!

So with that behind us, other than the memories that will be with us all for a long time, we are looking forward to the next part of the Summer Holidays and what events we have to entertain and occupy your children!

We have coming up the Woodland Playschemes and another...yes another Wet & Wild Adventure Camp!

 
Wet and Wild Adventure Camp....Take 2!   
Due to the success of the Wet & Wild Adventure Camp this week, we are offering another three days and two nights of woodland adventure, challenges and coastal activities....again all for a reduced rate of £150.00 per person. 

 

Wednesday 29th from 1000hrs to Friday 31st August 1800hrs. What better way to end your summer holidays! 


Wednesday 29th we will be in the woods & hopefully there will be an opportunity to get stuck in and help to make an earth / pizza oven (fingers crossed). Those people that still want to come for the day and just that, that is fine! 
Thursday 30th will be all about great heights and challenges! With a Wild Night Camp out....again if people want to come for just that, they can. Or maybe the Wednesday night maybe more suitable as there won't be the early start in the morning!! Ideally, for the group to bond it is better to engage in all of it, rather than dipping in and out, but we can be flexible.  As we can be on the age! 

Friday 31st will be all about water and coastal explorations!
