Introducing our New Split Holiday HQ Programmes!
We asked, you told us, and we listened. This Easter, we’re launching split programmes at nine Holiday HQ venues, creating a more tailored experience for every age group.
With our Under 8s and Over 8s split groups, children will enjoy age-appropriate activities that build confidence, resilience and independence.
Under 8s will experience our Holiday HQ: The Great Outdoors theme, while Over 8s take on structured competition, Zorb battles and arena-style team challenges. Two distinct programmes. One elevated Holiday HQ experience.
HHQ+ running at Barnes, Clapham Manor, Floreat, Grange, Montpelier, Somerhill, St Luke's, Woodmansterne Schools, Hart Leisure Centre & Thornton College.
Over 8s Programme
Primary-aged children aged 8 and over at nine Holiday Club venues will experience a high-energy Easter programme created specifically for older children. From Zorb battles and Mega-Ball Games to Rip Tags Arena, robotics builds, and tactical team missions, every session is designed to feel bold, competitive and genuinely different.
Through structured competition, arena-style sport and immersive team challenges, Children over 8 will build leadership, resilience and independence. This is challenge-led action for primary-aged children over 8 who want more from their school holidays.

Easter Make & Take: Labu Forest Friends - Tue 31st March
Our Labu Forest Friends Make & Take gives every child their own model and paints to create something truly theirs. A creative session with a collectable twist and a keepsake that lasts beyond the holidays. Please note: a small additional charge of £4.95 applies to our Make & Take experience. For children attending through the HAF programme, this experience is included at no extra cost.
How Does the Split Programme Work?
Each day begins and ends at your usual Holiday HQ drop-off point, with children split into their age groups to maximise their experience. Groups come together for snacks and lunch before returning to their sessions, and on Friday, 10th April, all children will join our core Easter Holiday HQ: The Great Outdoors programme.
