If you are looking for a whole week of activities to keep children active and entertained during the half term school holidays (26 May – 30 May) then look no further than your local leisure centre.

There are five leisure centres run by Huntingdonshire District Council in St Ives, Huntingdon, St Neots, Ramsey and Sawtry which have all put together a packed programme of sport and leisure activities offering something for everyone.

Children aged 5 to 12 can attend any of the popular kids holiday clubs where they will take part in swimming, sports, games, art and crafts, cooking and other exciting activities.  Full and half day sessions are available from only £2.11 per hour which represents excellent value for money.  The holiday clubs are all registered with OFSTED and provide a fun, caring and exciting environment with experienced CRB checked staff supervising all activities.

There are many individual courses and taster sessions to choose from including American football, badminton, basketball, cricket, football, jet skis, roller skating and trampolining.  For those that want to be creative there are arts and crafts and cookery sessions.

If you just want to cool down, you will find even more swimming sessions for children and families to enjoy.  Swimming is great value as a single session is only £2 for children and £3 for adults.  Children under five can swim completely free and family swim passes are available which entitles two adults and two children to swim for only £9.40.

Advance booking is required for the majority of courses and you are advised to book early as they fill up quickly.
