IMPORTANT INFORMATION
PEAK are now OFSTED REGISTERED for all of our camps. This has meant that we have had to make a few changes to the way in which we operate. Children aged 4 are only permitted by Ofsted to attend a camp for no more than 4 hours in any one day.
When you book a camp you will now be offer the opportunity of booking for all day (8am to 4pm) for children in Y1 and above (please note that children in reception will not be permitted to book for a full day) OR two half-day options (either 8am-12pm or 12pm-4pm).

HOLIDAY CAMP FAQs
​
How do I know if you have availability for a particular day/week?
Simply click Book Now and select the camp you would like to book for. The system will display whether we have good or limited availability, if it states limited availability we advise to book straightaway.
​
Your camps open at 8 – do I need to drop my child off at 8am?
No – our camps are open between 8am and 4pm. As long as you drop your child off and collect them between these hours then we are happy.
​
What is the format of the day?
We tend to poll the children at the start of the day to gauge interest in different activities. We then split the day into 4 or 5 sessions, during which we run between 3-5 different activities (dependent upon numbers). The more popular activities we run more than once to allow every child to participate in them.
​
Is it just physically active activities?
No – we also offer arts and crafts activities – lots of children need a break from running around during the day. We also have a range of board games and a mountain of lego!
​
Do you accept Childcare Vouchers?
Yes. You will need the information on the Ofsted certificate which will be on the PARENT INFORMATION page. If there is not a certificate for that site showing on this page then we are in the process of applying for Ofsted registration. If a camp is not yet registered with Ofsted, or that site has only just received its registration then we may not yet be able to accept childcare vouchers.
​
Do you offer a sibling discount?
No – this is one of the reasons we keep our prices so low.
​
You offer a 20% discount if you book a child for a full week, can a week’s booking be spread across two or three weeks?
No. A week covers the period Monday to Friday.
​
Why can my child, who is in reception, not attend for a full day?
This is an Ofsted requirement we're afraid. Even if our camp is not advertised as being Ofsted registered we will be in the process of getting it registered.
​
Who staffs the camps? Are they used to working with children?
Our staff team all work in schools during term-time. They all have an enhanced DBS and are first aid trained. Our staff are more than used to working with children with additional needs. Our team all have safeguarding and child protection qualifications and there will always be a trained Designated Safeguarding lead person on site.
​
What should my child wear when coming to camp?
We recommend trainers and leisure wear.
​
When do the children have lunch?
We stop for lunch at 12 o'clock. If your child is booked in for a half-day in the afternoon (12-4) we recommend that you send them in at 12 with a packed lunch.
