The school summer holidays are set to see the UK basking in glorious sunshine once again, but just in case they don’t, The Ark team has devised an all-weather multi-activity summer camp suitable for children between 5 and 12 years old. With an emphasis on enjoyment and team building, The Ark activity camp will not only increase your child’s confidence, but also their overall fitness, coordination and balance. Multi-Activity The Ark is committed to getting children more active, and what better way to have fun inside and outside this summer than with Tux and his friends? With more than 40 activities throughout the course of the week, including football, ice-skating, street dance, cheerleading, basketball, cricket and dodgeball, there is plenty of opportunity for children to have fun and be active. Our arts and crafts sessions will bring out their artistic side – who knows, there could be a budding Hockney or Hirst lurking within? The Team Our fully qualified activities team is committed to delivering a memorable experience for every child. Whilst the emphasis is on fun, your child’s safety and well-being are paramount and first aiders are available at all times. Each member of the team is Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) checked. What to bring? Indoor/outdoor shoes/trainers Weather-specific clothes and sun/rain hat Water bottle and sun cream Lunch (lunch boxes are available to pre-order from The Ark for £3.50 each before camp starts). What to leave at home? Mobile phones/tablets (unless pre-arranged with The Ark). FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Arrivals and departures Upon arrival, your child must be accompanied to the main reception (soft play) and you must sign them in. Please ensure that your child arrives at least ten minutes before the camp session is due to start.

The person collecting the child will be required to bring photographic proof of identity e.g. their passport or driving licence. What happens if I need to cancel or my child is ill?
