We begin the week with an exciting combination of movement, creativity, and outdoor exploration. Children will take part in a fun and engaging U-Sports coaching session, building confidence, coordination, and teamwork skills in a lively and supportive environment. Alongside this, they will enjoy hands-on creative activities such as making bird feeders, encouraging an early love for nature and caring for wildlife. After lunch, the day slows into a calm and reassuring routine with story time and group games, before children head outdoors for free play on bikes and scooters. The afternoon is filled with imaginative and sensory-rich experiences as children explore leaf painting, create their own fruit kebabs, and work together to build cosy dens—perfect for imaginative adventures. The day continues outdoors after dinner, where children can freely explore the mud kitchen, water play areas, and sports activities before ending with joyful music and movement games.

Tuesday invites children into the outdoors for a gentle yet exciting day at Oaken Grove Park, where they can connect with nature and enjoy a relaxed picnic setting. Throughout the day, children will create beautiful nature frames, collecting leaves, flowers, and twigs to make their own natural artwork – encouraging curiosity and creativity in the world around them. Following lunch, children enjoy a restful story time and group games session, before continuing their outdoor fun. The afternoon offers a sensory-rich nature tracing activity, where children discover patterns and textures in their environment, followed by the special treat of making and enjoying s’mores together. After dinner, children continue to enjoy the open air with bikes, water play, sand exploration, and group games—making the most of a joyful summer day outdoors.

Midweek brings a special highlight as children set off on a cinema trip, travelling by bus into town – an exciting adventure in itself! After the film, children will enjoy lunch together in the park, turning the outing into a full day of exploration and shared experiences. Back at the setting, the afternoon offers a gentle and reassuring return to routine with story time and group games, allowing children to relax after their big adventure. Creative and physical play follows, including den building, energetic obstacle courses, calming aqua bead sensory play, and interactive group games like “In, Out, Spin” that encourage listening and coordination. As always, the day finishes outdoors with relaxed play, giving children space to move, unwind, and socialise.

Thursday brings the spirit of adventure to life with a fun-filled camp-themed day at the park. Children take part in an exciting scavenger hunt, searching for natural treasures and working together as a team. After lunch, children settle into their familiar routine of story time and group activities, followed by outdoor play. The afternoon invites creativity and problem-solving as children build their own mini houses using sticks and twigs, explore nature painting, and enjoy imaginative junk modelling. These activities encourage children to think creatively, collaborate, and connect with the natural world around them. After dinner, the outdoor fun continues with scooters, water and sand play, and group games, creating a relaxed end to an adventurous day.

We finish the week with laughter, energy, and celebration as children enjoy a fun-filled day at the park. The highlight of the afternoon is exciting water balloon play, bringing plenty of giggles and refreshing summer fun (with a change of clothes recommended!). After lunch, children enjoy their familiar calm time with stories and group games, before moving into creative and imaginative play. The afternoon includes a cosy mini fire pit role play, where children can gather for storytelling, encouraging communication and imagination in a warm, group setting. The final hours of the week are spent enjoying the outdoors – playing games, riding bikes, and celebrating friendships – before ending the day with music, movement, and smiles all around. Week 4 is all about exploration, confidence, and outdoor adventure – giving children the freedom to discover, create, and thrive in the summer sunshine.
