2020 Holiday Clubs

Organised by Brent Knoll & Watergate Co-operative Trust 

2020 has been a challenging year for everyone. Despite this we held a holiday club in the February half term and over for 2 weeks at Watergate Site and for two lots of 2 weeks at Brent Knoll throughout the summer holidays. These weeks were oases for the children and families concerned.

We would like to acknowledge with gratitude this year’s funders: Phoenix Community Chest, the True Colours Trust, Co-op Members and the Mothers’ Union.

A hand-crafted den

We want to offer holiday clubs for all holidays apart from Christmas – but this is only possible with wider support

Activities included preparing home-cooked lunches (at Brent Knoll)

• party-time
• sensory activities,
• sports and arts and crafts.  
• Danceathons

We had trike races and made excellent use of the playgrounds.    

My child was so happy when he came home

Spending time with other children in a safe environment and having the space to play made all the difference.
