Phoenix Childcare Holiday Scheme

A range of activities and equipment for all ages including arts & crafts, cooking, group activities, story time, music, dance, computer, consoles. Trips to parks, woods and local areas (due to covid-19 these cant happen at the moment but when it is over we will be resuming the trips)

Our Holiday Club programme is designed to keep our children challenged, engaged and entertained, providing the opportunity for them to meet new friends, explore new things and try out different activities that they may not have experienced before.

Whether your child is actively sporty, quietly creative or something in between, there is always something to do. Our daily activities programme is carefully structured to include high energy action games as well as calmer, fun based activities like arts and crafts, model-making and baking.

Your child’s entertainment and enjoyment is the main focus of our Holiday Club and we plan a very wide range of activities and adventures.

Some of our team hold specific Outdoors qualifications and they organise a varied programme of exciting and stimulating, age-appropriate activities for our Holiday Club children.

Our large mini-bus gives our children the added freedom to safely travel a little farther afield to explore different opportunities and activities that they might not otherwise have had if we needed to rely on public transport.

During the summer we spend days at various local country parks, forests and beaches, often taking a picnic, weather permitting. Some of our particularly exciting days out have been at the National Aquarium in Plymouth, Dartmoor National Park, Torre Abbey, Occombe Farm, the cinema and the Circus in Paignton.

Our Holiday Club is open from 7:30am – 6:00pm during school holidays and includes all meals and snacks. All children have a two-course meal during the day.
