Holiday Club

At Stepping Stones, we’re excited to offer a nurturing and adventure-filled school holiday club for reception-aged children.

Rooted in our ethos, our holiday club provides a safe, caring and inspiring environment where children can relax, play and explore during school breaks.

Every day is designed to balance comfort, creativity and discovery — giving children a true “holiday” experience while maintaining the same exceptional care and values that define Stepping Stones Nursery.

Our Holiday Club Experience

Children enjoy a full day of fun, friendship and exploration with a wide variety of age-appropriate activities, both indoors and outdoors.

Our carefully planned program encourages curiosity, imagination and adventure — with opportunities to rest, play and learn at their own pace.

Activities Include:

● Creative arts and crafts

● Outdoor play and nature walks

● Music, movement and dance

● Water and sensory play

● Baking and simple cooking

● Group games and team challenges

● Quiet time for reading or mindfulness

● Exciting trips within the local community

No two days are the same — every week brings new experiences designed to inspire confidence, joy, and a sense of wonder.

Trips and Adventures

Our children love exploring the world beyond our setting.

We take regular outings into the local community and further afield in our nursery minibuses or via public transport.

All trips are risk-assessed and fully supervised with our very high adult-to-child ratios, ensuring safety and comfort at every stage.

From park adventures and library visits to exploring nature reserves or local attractions, each trip is an exciting opportunity to learn through real-life experiences.

Meals and Nutrition

We take pride in providing healthy, balanced meals and snacks throughout the day, so there’s no need to bring food from home — we cannot store packed lunches.

Your child will enjoy:

● A nutritious breakfast to start the day

● Two snacks (morning and afternoon)

● A freshly prepared hot lunch supplied by Zebedees

● A light tea, if staying later in the day

All meals are prepared by our team and tailored to children’s individual dietary needs.
