Holiday Club
Schools Out Holiday Club runs every half and full-term break throughout the year and over the full Summer Holidays. By releasing the agenda for each holiday well in advance, children can get excited and look forward to coming! Each day there is something for everyone to do, in group activities or a quiet space.
Children aged 4-11yrs (currently attending Primary School) from all over South Derbyshire/Staffordshire border attend. As an extremely friendly club, full of fun, we love to make new friends!
Yummy home-cooked food is available daily at lunch and tea, with fresh fruit always available. Children can experience BBQs, picnics and cook on an open fire which is exciting. Children really enjoy making their own food with us and learning new kitchen skills under close supervision.
The Schools Out Club activities are amazing and include: Forest School, cooking & baking, clothes designing & fashion shows, science experiments (that go bang!), walks into the local countryside, and theatre & drama – there’s truly never a dull moment!
You can enjoy lots of exciting trips out to local attractions such as Conkers, Matlock Bath, Markeaton Park, Rosliston Forestry Centre, which are always enjoyed by all. We have our own private fully electric minibuses for tips out. With First Aid training, DBS check, and years of experience, parents can rest assured their children are in safe hands. High Vis jackets are provided for trips out and we keep in contact with parents throughout the day.

- Holiday club bills are sent out on the last day of each holiday club, or every two weeks during the summer holidays.
- Children of school age are required to provide and apply their own sun cream (nursery staff may supervise the application of them). If sun cream is not provided and is deemed necessary in order to protect your child, nursery sun cream will be supplied and the charge will be added on to your bill.
- Holiday club regularly attend trips. Parents are always informed when a trip is planned. Every effort is made to keep any extra costs to a minimum. Additional trip payments must be made on the morning of the trip day at the latest and you will be asked to sign a consent form in order for your child to attend.

- If your child is not at the nursery in time to leave for a pre-organised trip, we will leave without them. It is then the parent/carers responsibility to meet the holiday club at their trip location. If you choose not to do this, full charges will still apply.
- Whilst every effort will always be made to keep to the planned agenda, we reserve the right to cancel or alter activities/outings without notice.
- In the event of the holiday club being full, your child will be put onto our waiting list and you will be informed as soon as a place becomes available
