Sue Dunn, of Hutton and Shenfield Union Church shared with us some of the fun activites that their Supersleuths engaged in during holiday club.
High Cross Church leaders at Camberley decided to run a different sort of holiday event with their toddler group this year. They invited the toddlers to bring their older siblings or school age friends along for a week in August to explore a 're-using' theme.
Children and family worker Sam Salt explained: “This worked well for us two years ago, when we trialled running our toddler group through the school holidays as a request from parents”.
Gosport School Pastors, represented by Karen Tweed and Andy Williams, were awarded the Community Impact Award at the Hampshire Education Awards celebration held in October 2021, having been nominated by members of the Senior Management Team of Gosport & Fareham Multi School Academy Trust in recognition of the role they play at Brune Park and Bay House schools.
Sawston Free Church in Eastern Synod ran their holiday club on 3-6 August 2021 and was especially pleased to include non-church families and those who have recently arrived to the UK.
The leader Maggie Jones expressed her gratitude towards the Children’s and Youth Work Committee for the grant making the holiday club affordable, “We prefer to keep the cost to the families at a minimum so that no one is excluded.” The two other churches in the village also make a small contribution each year - holiday club is open to anyone in the village and Sawston Free Church hosts it with CYDO Nicola Grieves' support.
Park United Reformed Church in Reading ran the holiday club using the Supersleuths and Families on Faith Adventures material in August. Leader Carrie King told us how they had a fantastic start, even though the holiday club had to be cut short due to a volunteer testing positive for Covid.
