Holiday Camps

If you believe your child has left something at one of our Wrap Around Care clubs or Holiday Camps – please email office@funtastickids.co.uk and we can check for you.

Please note that after any of our Holiday Camps have finished, lost property is returned to our Wokingham office, where it will be held for 3 weeks. After 3 weeks, any water bottles and food storage containers/lunch boxes are disposed of and any clothing is given to charity.

Funtastic Kids always display any lost property at Holiday Camps towards the end of the holiday period.  It is the parent’s responsibility to follow up with any lost property they believe we might have within the given time frame and to collect it from our Wokingham office.

Please note – we are unable to send out group emails, asking other parents if they have the missing item, due to data protection.

If your child is in Year 7 (or above), or attending Funtastic Kids during the summer when they are leaving Primary School to join Secondary School, they can be a Young Playleader. Please book as normal but let us know via email that they would like to take part in this scheme.
Unfortunately, we do not offer a part-session option.
There is a 10% sibling discount for the second and subsequent siblings offered on Breakfast & After School Club bookings where siblings attend the same sessions at some of our clubs. For more price information, please visit the specific webpage for the club or contact bookings@funtastickids.co.uk for more information. There is a sibling discount for the second and subsequent siblings on Holiday Camp bookings. Please see our prices on our individual Holiday Camp webpages for more details.
All of our Holiday Camps and Breakfast & After School Clubs have their own phone number, which is displayed in our registration areas. Our main office numbers may not be answered at all times during the day so please take note of the club/camp number when dropping off your child.
It is important for you to give us as much information as possible before your child’s first day and record any information in the medical section.  It is a good idea to contact our director, Louise Holloway, for advice. Louise has experience as an inclusion manager for over 20 years and can support parents and staff to ensure that the child receives the best care we can provide during their time with us. Please note that we are a mainstream holiday camp and are unable to offer individual support (1:1 support) during the camp day. We always consider the safety of all our children when considering including a child with behavioural difficulties and the potential impact on staff to child ratios. For more information, email office@funtastickids.co.uk
Only people listed as emergency contacts can collect your child.  If there is a change to this then please call us on 07715643412 to let us know who will be collecting your child with their name and a contact phone number.  You can set up a password online when booking that your collector can use.
Yes – please ensure you add these to the online registration form with as much detail as possible. We are a NUT FREE ZONE so there will be no nuts allowed in camp. We also provide “Free From” snacks as well as other snacks and can cater for special dietary requirements if we are informed in advance.
All of our Holiday Camps provide fun-packed creative-themed timetables (activities including drama, art, games, science and more) as well as energetic and varied sports timetables. Children can choose their preferred activity each session, making every day at Funtastic Kids unique. There is no need to choose in advance, children can pick what they would like to do on the day!
We don’t separate the children into different age groups. However, we have a VIP Club for our Early Years children where they are looked after by key adults, plus a Young Playleader Programme where the older children (Year 7 and above) are encouraged to take some responsibility. For some sports separating the younger children from the older ones may be required but is not typical.
We can not refund for illness (or swap for another date).  We would need 48 hours notice to cancel and refund. Please let us know, however, if your child will not be attending by calling 07715643412.
Children booked onto our Extended Day Session (8 am – 6 pm) will receive a nutritional breakfast and light afternoon tea included in the cost of the session. Water and “No Added Sugar” squash will be provided throughout the day. Some of our themed activities may involve tasting food (for example, trying multi-coloured fruit and veg as part of our ‘Over the Rainbow’ theme). Please bring a PACKED LUNCH and a water bottle for your child. We are a NUT FREE ZONE so NO NUTS OR NUT PRODUCTS are allowed in lunch boxes please (e.g. Peanut butter, Nutella, Cereal bars with nuts etc).
All children booked onto our 8 am – 6 pm Extended Session will receive a light, cereal breakfast with fruit/yoghurt (served until 8.30 am), and a cold, snack tea (wrap/sandwich with crisps, fruit and yoghurt) at 5 pm at no extra cost. A packed lunch needs to be provided from home. No nuts or nut products please.  
You need to book the full 8 am to 6 pm session and drop off and collect between those times. We can no longer provide a booking for a 9.30 am start to 5:30 pm finish. If you need to extend your finish time on the day this will be subject to staff availability and will be charged to an 8 am til 6 pm day price.
Our staff are often staff with school, Early Years or childcare experience.  Our after school club supervisors and holiday camp supervisors have at least a level 2 or level 3 relevant qualification or are trainee teachers.  We also have a number of qualified teachers working for us during the school holidays. All our supervisors and after school/breakfast club playworkers have full 12 hour paediatric first aid training and level 2 Food safety at work.  All our staff have universal safeguarding. In house training and accredited level 2 courses are also offered to all our staff. Our management team consists of 4 qualified primary teachers, all with past or current senior leadership experience.  We also have a Early Years practitioner and former pre-school manager as part of our management team who oversees the running of all our clubs and camps as well as advises the team on Early Years procedures.
Yes. We register all our Breakfast & After School Clubs and Holiday Camps with Ofsted. We follow Ofsted regulations and guidelines to offer the highest standard of care possible.  These regulations help raise the quality of care and ensure the safety and wellbeing of children. Our Ofsted registration numbers and most recent Ofsted reports can be found on our individual club/camp pages.
We have a strict 1: 10 ratio of staff to children.
Layers are a good idea so your children can stay warm/keep cool in the changing weather. Clothes and shoes should be comfortable for running around in. Clothes that are not precious – they can get dirty when outside or messy when inside!  A painting apron for art is a good idea or an old shirt! Please a change of clothes in case your child might forget to visit the toilet when taking part in all our exciting activities.
A packed lunch with plenty of snacks for break times, plus:
  • A water bottle
  • Any medication in a named container
  • Waterproof clothes for outside play
  • Medication form (if this is needed and has not already been completed).
Please note that we are a nut free zone!
