Holiday Activity & Food Programme (HAF)

Families 

GCS are pleased to open up bookings for our Summer Family Fun Days! Our programme is designed to keep young children active, engaged and secure during the school holidays. 

We promote inclusive practice which encourages children of all abilities to engage in activities on offer. Our provision enables new friendships and relationships to develop with both peers and staff.

We provide a range of opportunities to encourage children to explore, think for themselves, find solutions and know that it is OK to make mistakes. In doing so, we build children’s resilience, self-esteem and self-belief, encouraging positive attitudes to future learning.

We offer a wide range of activities including arts and crafts skills, which help to develop your child's imagination and creativity, organisation skills and fine motor skills. Artwork you create and can proudly display in your home. 

Cooking and Baking, we offer a Make, take and bake station. This can vary from recipes we help you prep to then bake later at home, to fun decorating or delicious snacks ready to eat. Families are educated on preparing healthy meals and teaching measuring and cooking skills they can share with their children. 

We provide a healthy hot meal that has been freshly prepared each day. We can cater for all special dietary requirements. When booking your space please provide us with the details. 

Children must be accompanied by a parent/carer.

If you qualify for benefits related Free School Meals then you are eligible to sign up for any of our HAF camps. 

A HAF Code will be required when booking.

Youths

GCS are pleased to open bookings for our Summer Youth Days!

We offer a wide range of activities including arts and crafts skills, which help to encourage self-expression and creativity and can build confidence as well as a sense of individual identity.

Our youth groups like to stay very active. We tend to head off site and take part in fun physical activities. For example, rock climbing, trampoline parks, swimming and lazer tag, den building and outdoor adventures. We also enjoy fun visits to golf centres, bowling alleys and cinemas.
