About Healthy Holidays

The Healthy Holiday Programme is funded by the Department of Education to provide support to families who may find school holidays difficult. The funding enables eligible children ages from reception to year 11 to access holidays clubs for free.

The Healthy Holiday Programme is delivered by a range of providers over the Easter, Summer, and Winter School Holidays. Each holiday camp will last for 4 hours and 4 days within a week, a meal and healthy snacks are provided along with enriching activities for children to take part in.
