CHIPS Guildford St Paul's Ash

IMPORTANT: This booking is for a full-week and children are expected to attend all days offered - for the first and second week of delivery this is Monday-Friday, and for the 3rd week, Monday-Thursday. Please only book if your child can attend for the full week as spaces are limited. You may be refused future bookings at CHIPS if your child is unable to attend all days booked without prior notice. HAF funded places are being allocated via referral in partnership with local schools. Please contact your school if you think you may be eligible for one of these. Please note - preference for all places is given to children from our low-income local areas and children in need of additional support. The activities we offer are based on feedback from children, their parents/carers and the particular issues in our area but all are designed to increase the children’s long-term confidence and self-esteem, raise their aspirations, get them active and support improved communication skills and better mental health and well-being. We offer arts, crafts, cookery, music and dance to develop the children’s social and communication skills, self-expression, self-esteem and confidence. We also carry out lots of outdoors play including building dens, assault courses and bug hunts to get the children active in their own environment plus we offer a sports programme that develops physical skills through informal sports and coached activities including basketball, tag rugby, football and rounders to name a few! Alongside this, to give the children the chance to try something new, we deliver activities around a different theme every year. In recent years we have been to space, explored jungles and travelled back in time! Every child attending is entitled to a free, nutritious cooked lunch plus healthy snacks. Children with mild special educational needs such as autism, speech and language difficulties and ADHD and/or disabilities are fully included in all activities supported by qualified, DBS checked playworkers. Children must be in year's 1-6 at the time of delivery. We can be most easily be reached via email at: admin@chipsholidayplay.co.uk - or message to: 07885 683101.

Our small community-based charity, CHIPS Guildford, provides quality, inclusive school holiday play provision for children currently in Years 1-6 in the Guildford wards of Bellfields and Slyfield (formerly Stoke) & Westborough as well more recently in the Ash/Ash Wharf and Tongham wards. We run for four weeks during the summer holidays and for one week at Easter from 9am until 4.30pm and offer a safe, fun and stimulating play environment where the children direct the activities that they take part in. At least one-third of the children joining us do so for free, based on the needs of the child and their home. These children join us via referral from their school, social services or via self-referral in response to our advertised free places.
