We are pleased to announce the opening of bookings for October half term from 1pm on Friday the 16th of October
With the continuing COVID restrictions, and following the success of the Summer, the week will operate in the reformatted form so we can still accommodate as many people as possible whilst maintaining a safe environment for all concerned.
You can pick which activity suits your child, we have kayaking in the morning and sailing in the afternoon, unfortunately, no windsurfing is available. Children can work towards achieving BC & RYA certificates, respectively, giving structure and allowing kids to progress and work through the syllabus at their own rate, having lots of fun along the way.
More Information
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, there will be no access to changing rooms, all children should come changed ready for their activity. We are unable to provide wetsuits as we usually would. If you feel your child would benefit from having one, your best bet is to head to Decathlon in Surrey Quays.
You will need to bring a change of clothes, towel and suitable footwear (closed toe).
All children will be provided with a buoyancy aid and all equipment.
Booking
All bookings will only be taken online, no phone or in-person booking is possible.
All bookings are subject to our Course Booking Terms & Conditions.
