Important Information

Wilder Holiday Club is for children aged 5 to 11 and will run at sites across the county between Tuesday, 28 October and Friday, 31 October. Activities will vary by site.

Our Wilder Holiday Club runs from 9am to 3pm.

All our activities take place outdoors and children will need to come dressed for the weather. We recommend layers that can get mucky including long sleeves and trousers to protect against scratches and stings, waterproofs and boots, trainers or wellies. Sandals and open-toed shoes are not permitted. In hot and sunny weather we also recommend sun hats and sun cream. Please note that toilets may be a 5-10 minute walk depending on each site.

Your child will require a snack, water, and a packed lunch. We are nut-free so please do not include any items containing nuts. All rubbish will need to be returned home with your child. Some sites may have a campfire and toasting suggestions will be sent on booking.

We need a completed consent form for each child attending Wilder Holiday Club. Without this, your child will not be able to attend.

Child Consent Form

Meeting point: Meet by the picnic benches outside the main building.
