Thank you Strive SEND team

It has been such a lovely experience attending the SEN strive sessions provided for my son.
It’s hard to know where to take my son in the holidays that is safe but this opportunity has been amazing and he has enjoyed it so much.
The team are so lovely and supportive and I have met new mums/carers to chat to also!
Thank you Scarlet and the SEND strive team. Can’t wait to book onto more sessions!

Strive Summer Camp - HAF

We have recently been using Strive Summer Camp under Medway Go and my children absolutely loved it! They was thrilled with the amount of activities on offer and how much they did, the staff were super helpful always and our children bonded well with them. They came out smiling and had fun daily and we will definitely be rebooking!

Amazing SEN sessions and half term camps!

Our 2 eldest children have been attending half term sports camps for the last few years and have absolutely loved all the different activities they get to do, water fights, archery, trampolining, performing arts, arts and crafts, cooking and multi sports. Making new friends and not getting board with us grown ups working.

We have also had our youngest attend the SEND summer sessions and this has been absolutely amazing! For parents that have children with SEN, you likely know how challenging it is for our little ones to try new things or simply be outside the comfort of their own home. For our youngest he has spent most the summer break refusing to leave the house, yet he has been going to the SEND club sessions and it has been the highlight of our summer. He has had experiences he wouldn’t typically be able to access with character visits, train-master, magic show, animal encounters, trampolining, etc! Bringing all the experiences to the club venue so the environment stays the same.

Parents are welcomed to stay and can take a breather watching over their children in a safe environment and meet other parent/carers.

Our youngest can’t do clubs independently and needs us to present and not many clubs have the understanding of our children’s needs for them to access them, so strive have found an amazing dynamic to provide this service for SEN children.

We can’t thank Scarlett and the strive team enough. All staff are friendly and great with the children! Simply amazing!

My son Kai and I went to the SEN…

My son Kai and I went to the SEN holiday camp today and I have to say I was beyond shocked… my son LOVED it.
Kai’s not great with new things and was nervous at the start but within 15 mins he was happily playing without me.
The staff were great, played non stop with the children and more importantly they listened to each child.
Will definitely recommend

Amazing SEN session…

Thank you for an amazing SEN session day! Strive PE & Sport have an amazing staff team who are all excellent with the children and parents. The staff were excellent at adapting their playing techniques to the individual needs of the children. Also an extremely relaxed atmosphere. Cannot wait to attend a session again.

Easter SEN Camp

My son and I attended the Easter SEN camp. It was great to be able to attend with him and have fun together. The staff were really enthusiastic, had loads of energy and were really engaging with the children. Lot's of sports activities to get involved in, however no pressure for the children to stay at the activity. My son was happy shooting some hoops, kicking a ball around and bouncing on the trampette. Great lunch provided for the children. We will definitely attend again. Thank you to all involved.

SEND Sports Camp

I attended the SEND camp at Easter and my boys really enjoyed it.
I really liked the format whereby the children were free to to join in with whatever they wanted to, when they wanted to.
The trampoline was a great addition to the session allowing the children to have fun and burn off some energy.
The Easter egg hunt was great fun too.
We look forward to returning again in the near future.

We had a brilliant time at Strive.
The staff were welcoming,understanding and very helpful in assisting me with my very active autistic son.
There were a range of activities to keep him busy and I was glad we had a safe place to bring our children to play and to be at ease.

Thank you very much

Well what can say this was an amazing find through Facebook! My son as Autism and great to find a place that cater for SEN needs. A range of activities and ideas was set up throughout the day. All the staff made us both feel at home and were so welcoming. The activities were short and worked around every child’s ability, and also lot free flow play along with arts and craft and sensory area.

8th Birthday party

Scarlet and Eva held the best party. Organisation and communication was brilliant and the party was fantastic. There was 20 children and Scarlet and Eva managed it so well with a variety of sports activities. Also loved the personal touch of certificate and gift for the birthday girl at the end. Thankyou both so much, this was definitely my daughters favourite party.

Football party for a 6 year old

Kaitlyn and Eva ran my sons 6th birthday this weekend and I was just so impressed with how engaging and fun they made it for all kids. They were empathetic when kids got hurt (football to the face 🤦‍♀️) but still able to multi task and keep every child happy. When it was time for food and cake, they were hands on, helping control kids running around, organising kids to get together for a photo, helping to clear up and in general just being there offering their services. They left us with the very bare minimum to do on the day at the party so this was absolutely perfect. Kaitlyn herself, who also takes my sons after school football club at his school, makes my son feel so comfortable around her, he is shy and doesn't take to many adults but he admires her. Absolute credit to the company.

SEN sports camp

The SEN sports camp was absolutely amazing. My little boy truly had the best time. There was such a diverse range of children yet every child was catered for. The games where fully inclusive for everyone and each child could participate at their own leisure. There was a sensory corner, arts and crafts and even a film for the children who wanted to watch it. The staff were fantastic with all the children and everyone was made to feel involved. So lovely to have a safe space for all the kids to be themselves. Well done Strive PE & sport, inclusiveness for all, at its finest.

Feedback on Kaitlyn

I just wanted to say that Kaitlyn who does the breakfast club is an asset to your company and is wonderful with my son who is anxious and can get upset but Kaitlyn is always pleased to see him in the morning and is so kind to my son, even when he is sad. I trust her fully to care for my son and he has developed a lovely friendship with her. It can't be an easy job caring for so many children and providing breakfast and activities for them to do, especially when children like my own can come to her upset. She is absolutely wonderful!!!! Just wanted to share some happy news too!

Brilliant party hosts!!

Had a brilliant time today for my sons 8th birthday party! Rob and Eva were brilliant and so patient with the very excited children! Everything was taken care of, food, sweet cones, certificates and even a gift and medal for my son! Scarlett was super helpful answering all my emails making sure everything went well. All the children said how much fun they had, and wanted to carry on playing football after! Thank you all so much. Highly recommend!
