Loving our new site - Lancing College Prep, Worthing
We at the West Sussex team are prepping for our biggest summer yet with three sites running. We're returning to The Globe Primary Academy, Lancing for our second summer, and Goring CE Primary School for our first summer (but fourth instalment of holiday clubs), and we're also kicking things off at Lancing College Prep in Broadwater.
Geographically our hope is that these three sites work really well as together they mean that families from West, Central and East Worthing are all very close to a holiday club site. Lancing are of course well served by the Globe and hopefully it's not too far for our friends from Southwick and Shoreham. although we reckon a Shoreham site may have to be added before next summer...watch this space...!
This week we've been getting to know the Lancing Prep kids a bit better by running a series of 90 minute taster workshops with some different themes across all the year groups. Years 1 & 2 on Tuesday was fire lighting and games, 3 & 4 on Wednesday was fire lighting and shelter building and tomorrow for the 5 & 6 we've got fire lighting and NERF.
A bit of a fire lighting theme then as you can see, but it's one of those sessions that appeals to all age groups and they've all done brilliantly. It was great to see some new faces but also lovely to realise that we know a lot of these kids from past holiday clubs already!
Bring on the summer, and yes we're aware the van needs a clean, it got caked in mud on the way into the woods the other day to pick up a load of hazel for Harry Potter wands and brooksticks...
