A group of children lying together

Description automatically generated with low confidence

Everyone knows the feeling: the school holidays have begun and the kids are bored already. Worse, you rely on free school meals during term time, so you’re out of pocket. Holiday Thrive is your answer.

 

The project

Each session is entirely free, and includes:

● Free breakfast and lunch, and sometimes fresh fruit and beg to take away.

● Activities, games, craftwork, and friendship. Sometimes we see a film.

● We usually offer food bags for taking home afterwards.

When

We next meet during the Easter holiday in April, 10:00 am until 2:00 pm. Stay for the whole time or just nip in and out—the choice is yours. Places are limited, so please booking a place for your child is essential: please click here. We will give prioriy to children in receipt of free school meals.

 

Where

We meet in the Barnabas Centre on Arundel Street, Clarksfield. If you’re using satellite navigation, please use the postcode OL4 1NL.

 

Key sponsors

We rely on a grant from the Department for Education, as administered by Oldham Council.

We also wish to thank Fareshare for some of the food we share.
