CHURCHILL SUMMER CAMPS

 2009

Day camps operate from 9.30am - 4.30pm, Monday to Friday each week.  Children normally attend for a full week but at each camp there are a few 2 day tasters available, see Availability above for more details.  We are offering 2 day camp sites this summer, dates and site details are below.  Parents are welcome to drop children off between 9am and 9.30am each morning and collect between 4.30and 4.45pm each evening as part of the day camp holiday price.  

Early and Late Booking Service - due to the increasing numbers of children arriving outside our core programme hours, we now offer an 8.00am start and a collection of up to 5.30pm each day for an additional cost of £30 per week or £3 per session (8am-9am or 4.45pm-5.30pm).  In booking your child in for this service , we can then ensure we have sufficient numbers of staff on duty and be able to provide refreshments and a planned programme in a dedicated venue. This can be tailored to suit parents needing just an Early or Late service, please ring us to discuss this.

Extra Activities: many regulars will know that we have offered sailing, windsurfing and dry ski-ing in the past, however due to new ownership at Tallington Lakes and a radical change in their pricing structures we can no longer afford to offer these as part of our additional programme of activities.  We are looking into alternatives this year and hope to be able to offer something competitive for the following season.

1) PETERBOROUGH HIGH SCHOOL, THORPE RD -  Summer (£140)   

This is the fifth season at this site.  We think it is the perfect location for a Peterborough based children’s holiday camp.  The school is located halfway along Thorpe Road, which links Peterborough city centre with a main artery of the Peterborough Parkway.  The school itself stands in its own extensive grounds, with mature woodlands and large playing fields on all sides of the main building.  It is well equipped with a large sports hall and main hall, several indoor activity areas, tennis courts, excellent art rooms and junior facilities plus on site parking.  Children need to bring their own packed lunches.  Biscuits and drinks are provided morning and afternoon.  Swimming will take place off site with privately booked sessions in Peterborough and Stamford.

 DATES: 

Summer: July 13-17, July 20-24 and July 27-31

AVAILABILITY:  All weeks

2) STAMFORD, LINCS - Summer (£140)   

This year the camp is based on the junior school site of Stamford High School for Girls.  The school is just 250 yards out of Stamford on the A43 to Kettering Rd and is very close to the A1.  The school boasts over 10 acres of landscaped grounds and is well equipped with an indoor heated swimming pool, large purpose built gymnasium and sports hall, extensive playing fields, hard tennis courts, woodland and gardens.   Packed lunches are provided for all children as are biscuits and drinks morning and afternoon.

DATES: Aug 3-7, Aug 10-14 and Aug 17-21

*DAY CAMP TASTERS £70
