Mary Elton - Summer 2026 Holiday Club

Universal Provision Before booking sessions please read guidance on qualification available on the North Somerset Council HAF web pages Each day you can drop your children off in appropriate sports kit (we will provide a packed lunch and a drink for your child however please also bring along a water bottle to keep hydrated). Then pick them back up at the end of the day - safe in the knowledge that your children are with DBS checked, professional & qualified coaches that are first aid trained and fully insured. We start the day with a meet and greet to orientate the children, then it's in to a timetable of exciting activities for the morning: either something crafty indoors or sporty outdoors, their choice! And then we'll stop for a hearty lunch (provided by us) and a spot of free time for the children to play with the equipment and make up their own games. And then we finish with an afternoon of activities from the timetable.

Understanding Free School Meals for Children in the UK In the UK, there are two primary types of free school meals available for children: Universal Free School Meals Benefits Related Free School Meals 1. Universal Free School Meals Universal Infant Free School Meals are provided for all children in reception year, year 1, and year 2. These meals are automatically available to children upon entering reception and continue until the end of year 2. Parents do not need to apply for these meals as they are granted universally to all eligible children within these school years. 2. Benefits Related Free School Meals Benefits Related Free School Meals are available for children from families receiving certain qualifying benefits. Unlike Universal Free School Meals, these require parents or guardians to apply. Besides providing meals during the school term, qualifying children also gain access to funded Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) sessions, ensuring they receive nutritious meals even during school holidays. Families can determine their eligibility for Benefits Related Free School Meals by visiting the North Somerset Council website.
