We are delighted to offer holiday clubs throughout the year, helping parents balance work commitments with the need for high quality childcare. More than simply childcare though, our clubs offer children up to Primary 6 lots of exciting experiences and fun activities.  


Our next club will take place during the Easter 2024 holiday.

 

When are is your next Holiday Club?  

Monday 8th April to Friday 12th April 2024 (subject to bookings)

 

Who can attend? 

Children from Primary 1 to Primary 6 from any school, not just those who attend St Columba’s School. Please note that children who attend our Nursery are also welcome!

 

How much does the Holiday Club cost?

The cost is £33 per day, per child, for our core hours (10am-4pm). However,  we are open from 9am right through to 5pm giving you the much-needed flexibility and reassurance to get on with your day!

Core Hours 10am-4pm  £33 per day
Early Bird 9am-10am £5.50 per day
Night Owl 4pm-5pm £5.50 per day

 

How do I register?

All you need to do is complete a booking form (one for each child you wish to attend). Please note that bookings will be accepted on a first come first served basis. Unfortunately, we cannot accept any children who arrive on the day without advance booking. 

  • My child does not attend St Columba’s – please book here
  • My child is a Columban – please book here

Once we have received your completed form(s), we will send you a booking confirmation with instructions on how to make an online payment.    

 

Can I book additional hours and days? 

You can add additional days and hours to your child’s booking simply by completing the relevant booking form here above. Please also get in touch via email to advise us of this change. The email address is holidayclubs@st-columbas.org.  

 

What should my child wear? 

St Columba’s boasts a fantastic play area comprising our ‘wild woodies’ as well as an expanse of landscaped grounds. Children will spend part of the day outside so it is important that they are dressed for all eventualities! To help you prepare, we advise: 

  • old, comfortable clothing 
  • shoes which can be used for sports activities. 

We also ask that you provide:

  • additional clothing and footwear appropriate to the weather conditions (wellies, for example)
  • a full change of clothes 

We ask that all clothing, and any other items brought from home such as packed lunch boxes/bags and water bottles, are clearly named so that we can get any lost property back to you!

 

Does my child need to bring anything else? 

Yes - all children are required to bring: 

  • a packed lunch 
  • snacks 
  • a water bottle
