This means we may need to speak with you to understand your child’s individual needs and ensure our provision is a suitable and safe environment where they can be appropriately supported.
Some useful tipsDrop off time: 08.45am
Pick up time: 15.30pm
Please note, parents/guardians will be asked to sign children in and out.
Please ensure children and young people wear clothing suitable for sporting activities, including training shoes. On occasions we may go to our outdoors, therefore a jumper and coat would be advisable.
All children and young people will have the opportunity to swim each day (unless due to unforeseen circumstances). Please bring a swimming kit, including a towel and goggles (optional).
We recommend bringing refillable water bottles as our staff will always encourage the refilling of bottles throughout the day to keep our participants hydrated.
Can a child bring electronic equipment including mobile phones, tablets or laptops?
From Easter 2024 we are operating a no mobile devices policy, this is to ensure the privacy and wellbeing of all participants.
As part of the Cheshire East Holiday Activity Fund Scheme, we will provide snacks and a meal at lunchtime, our friendly coaches will ask the participant to choose their meal selection in the morning that they attend.
