"My daughter had a truly fantastic, exciting and enjoyable time. She is quite a shy child, but right from the first day she loved coming to the sports centre and had a great time with all the activities."

Please ensure your child is suitably prepared for all weather conditions and activities, ie trainers, tracksuit, sun-cream, hats, rain coat etc. A spare change of clothes is required.

You must supply your child with a packed lunch and drinks bottle every day. Please ensure that they have enough food and drink to sustain them throughout the day.
