BALPA Performing Arts Activity Days
The Inspire Arts Trust
A summary
Our BALPA activity days run in the school holidays for children from Reception all the way through to Year 6. The days typically run from 10am – 4pm and are held at Caedmon Complex in Thornbury (next to Tesco).
The days feature performing arts including street dance, musical theatre and drama plus craft activities, fun games and a healthy but fun lunch. Beginners and experienced performers welcome. We take a maximum of 30 children per day with many experienced tutors, helpers and young volunteers to ensure the children have a fun packed day!

Menus & Dietary Requirements
We have found that the children enjoy a lunch where they can choose what goes on their plate. We provide a healthy cold lunch where the children can choose their bread (or other alternatives), meats, cheeses, salad and fruit. There are also snacks and drinks provided throughout the day. Please ensure you have let us know any dietary requirements when booking.
Finding Us
We are on the Bristol Road first turning on the left if coming from Thornbury town and we are the complex at the back. We do have a gate from Tesco car park too which will be open. There is parking on site and a bus stop nearby if needed.

Cancellation policy
No refunds are given except in the case of a cancellation by the Mentor.
My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
