We have had a longstanding partnership with Kings Camp, which benefits both the Howell’s School community and the wider community of Cardiff. The relationship with Kings Camp provides childcare options during the school holidays for families across the city, as well as creating a valuable revenue stream for our school. Frances Keeping, Business Operations and Estates Manager, The Howell’s School, Cardiff
The pupils, families and staff at King’s Macclesfield are delighted to be working in partnership with King’s Camps! Following a superbly run Summer Camp, we are looking forward to offering an expanded programme on our new site next year. From the start, King’s Camps have been supremely professional, engaging, proactive and supportive, as our offer for pupils has been redesigned and rolled out. Staff are engaging and pupil-centred, focussing on enabling wonderfully happy and active days for children of all ages. We are delighted to be working with King’s Camps. Rachel Cookson, Principal of the Infant and Junior Division, The Kings School, Macclesfield
As well as creating new revenue streams and increasing space utilisation during our off-peak times, our partnership with Kings Camps has helped us to connect further with our local community, showcasing University of Edinburgh facilities and services to parents and children.

Programmes

Based on decades of experience, our programmes and activities are designed to be inclusive for children of all abilities. We aim to develop essential life skills such as teamwork and confidence, and personal skills such as agility, strength and coordination.

We believe that every child deserves screen-free time and we provide the opportunity for children to be active, have fun and learn together. Whether it’s our core Multi-Active, Teen Active or Rookie Academy programmes, or our specialist swim, cricket or football courses, we positively engage children aged 5-17 and from all backgrounds and abilities.

Our camps feature a wide range of activities, both conventional – such as football, tennis, hockey and dodgeball – and less than conventional – such as capture the flag, shoe golf, cricket rounders, circus skills and parachute games. All our activities focus around fun, inclusion and enjoyment.

Our Staff – Red Tops

Exceptional programmes demand extraordinary leaders. That’s why we sift over 20,000 applicants each year to find only the very best to work with us. We recruit teachers, sports professionals and sports students with energy, enthusiasm and passion for getting children active. We have a thorough training and induction process to ensure your children are safe and we emphasise that our programmes must be fun and enjoyable experiences for every child.

Safe and Secure

The safety and security of our campers means everything to us. From secure signing in and out, to thorough safeguarding and training, our policies and our experience means children are safe throughout their time with us. To further ensure the very highest quality of care and safety, we work with organisations such as Ofsted, NSPCC and RoSPA.

Supporting Families

Our Supporting Families programme aims to make a difference to the lives of children from a range of difficult or disadvantaged family circumstances, such as financial hardship, terminal illness and bereavement.

By offering subsidised places, we seek to improve the well-being of children and their families. It’s an opportunity for children to experience a week of fun and structured activity, and for families to have a respite opportunity.
