Easter Holiday Activities

by

Whether it’s finding fun things for the kids to do, paying for extra childcare, or even just all that extra food they seem to eat, the school holidays can be a struggle for many families. Covid-19 has meant that many people’s incomes have been reduced and children and young people are keen to get out and spend time with their friends.

We want to make sure no young people go hungry during the holidays. That’s why we launched our Fun and Food programme, providing fun activities with healthy snacks and meals for children and young people. Activities are provided by range of partners including schools, voluntary and community sector groups, sport and leisure services and our Family Centres.

Red Nose Day 2021

by

Today the children have taken on the mammoth challenge that we call the ‘ATHON CHALLENGES’. We raised a total of £61 via ParentPay.

All day today each class bubble have been working hard to raise money for the Red Nose Day charity;

  • Starting with Class 1 who participated in the outdoor ‘CLIMBATHON’.
  • The next hour saw Class 2 tackle the ‘YOGATHON’ – each team had 15minutes to get their Yoga on – lasting the whole hour!
  • Class 3’s challenge was ‘SKIPATHON’ where the children from each team had 15 minutes of Skipping to participate in.
  • Before Class 4 ended our ‘ATHON CHALLENGES’ with ‘DANCEATHON’!

Huge well done to all of the children who participated and helped us raise money for this amazing charity. As well as all of the parents and carers who donated via ParentPay 🙂
