Great out of school child support option

My two girls have been attending this holiday camp on and off over the Easter beak in 2024 and the summer of 2024 and really enjoy going. We tried several different settings and this was by far their favourite. The activities vary from day to day and these are all fun for the children, getting them engaged and involved. The staff are helpful and friendly to the children and parents. My children look forward to attending days at this holiday camp.

I really can't recommend the Shenfield group highly enough they are amazing with my daughter, she has autism and struggles alot but she settled in so well with the daily routine and telling them each morning on a board what they will be doing helps. miss white and miss Scott-Evans and miss Ayres from her group are amazing they welcome her and she really enjoys it. no one would be disappointed in the club we will definitely only using these from any holiday.
Mr Thompson is also very welcoming in the mornings and evening
well done Shenfield club 👏 🥰
The 6 weeks have been so much happier we been every week and one last one to go!!! ☺️ couldn't of been more happier to send Zoie here 💗

This is superb feedback and one we shall take to Essex County council as we strive to work closer with them to supply extra support for children with SEND yet also get amazing benefits from being in a mainstream setting. Thank you for taking the time to write this! I shall pass on to the team.

Superb Sean, thank you for leaving us a review.. could I be cheeky and ask for feedback on how to turn that 4 star into a 5 star? Hope to hear from you soon!

My daughter has been enjoying the camp for a week and she asked me for a second one. While the instructors could have been more attentive, the overall experience were great. It's better value, and cheaper, than similar ones operated by the local council.

That's great to hear Michael.. can I ask which venue you are attending this summer and I can relay the 5 star feedback to them. Six weeks of camp is a long fun time, so reminders to the teams of staff to always be attentive is needed.. I can add that into our training schedules :)

KEGS camp Lily R

My daughter has attended KEGS camp all week and loved every minute! The range of activities are brilliant and the teachers really lovely.
Her highlight has been brownie making and the ice cream van!

Fun packed summer!

School’s out was an amazing summer experience, the activities were varied and adventurous with lots of opportunities to try new things. There was something for everyone, with different groups enjoying different activities depending on personal preferences. Lovely staff at Felixstowe and a camp that has great facilities. Highly recommend!

Excellent provider, friendly and super helpful. Highly recommend

My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her experience in this setting which is in beautiful grounds and safe, nurturing and supportive and such a fun environment.
When booking sessions some were fully booked which my daughter was upset about. I contacted Christopher and Sophie who were both extremely helpful and friendly and quickly resolved the issue issuing her a space to all sessions. My daughter was over the moon with this outcome.
Highly recommend this provider and will be using again wherever possible.

Kids won't regret it

I've registered my 12 year old for the first time to School's Out holiday club, for the first time. At the beginning she was skeptical, due to, no so great, past experiences, but it turned out to be "love at first site" She told me that they have loads if sports activities to choose from: football, archery, inflatables, dodgeball, roller races, themed arts and crafts and many more. I am not sure if the location is permanent, but hopefully it will be because is amazing. The kids have a lot (a mean a lot) of field to run arround and the indoor area has an air conditioning for the hot summer days, for kids to cool down. We will definitely come back.
