Holiday Club
At St John's, we offer two exciting holiday clubs during half-term breaks and school holidays, providing reliable support for families outside term time.
Mini Lions Holiday Club
Our Mini Lions Holiday Club is run by St John's staff and is specially designed for children aged 3 to 7 years.
Open to children from all schools, Mini Lions offers a range of creative, sporting, nature-based, and arts and crafts activities in a safe and nurturing setting, helping children learn, play and make new friends during the holidays.
P.L.A.Y Active Holiday Club
The P.L.A.Y Active Holiday Club is delivered by our trusted external partner, P.L.A.Y Active, and is available for children aged 5 to 12 years. The club typically runs throughout the school holidays and also offers holiday club provision on INSET days. A limited number of places may be available for younger children.
Open to children from all schools, the club offers a wide variety of energetic and fun-filled activities, including sports, games, crafts and outdoor adventures, designed to keep children active, engaged and entertained throughout the holidays.
