SUMMER ACTIVITIES

2018

it’s free!

SUMMER ACTIVITIES 2018 WELCOME ...to Active South Derbyshire’s summer holiday programme, which is jam packed full of fun activities for you to do and is completely FREE!!!!!

Fold out the giant calendar inside to find out day-to-day what’s happening over the school holidays throughout South Derbyshire!

For Summer 2018 parents/guardians must complete a NEW consent form before children and young people can take part in any of the activities. A Play Pass will be issued on submission of your consent form, which can then be used at all of our sessions.

Please note that all of these activities are open public sessions in open public spaces and run on a drop in and out basis, meaning young people are free to come and go as they please. The staff working at these sessions are there to supervise young people when they are using our equipment only. We therefore recommend that parents or guardians remain at sessions and supervise their children at all times.
