Creative half-term holiday camps where profits help the Hospice

Creation Station

Children can get crafty this half term at a creative holiday camp, where all profits go to help St Helena Hospice support local people who face incurable illness and bereavement.

‘The Creation Station in support of St Helena Hospice’ is enrolling now for a creative holiday camp from 17th February to 21st February. Full day and half day sessions are available.

Clair Hallums, The Creation Station Manager, said:

“Do you need childcare over the school holidays? Let ‘The Creation Station in support of St Helena’ entertain the children when they're not at school!

“While the children are having fun and being creative, the adults will know they made a great choice as 100% of the profit goes to St Helena Hospice.

“We operate in a secure location, as children’s safety is our number one priority. Breakfast and snacks are included in the cost of the sessions, and we offer flexible drop off and pick up.”

Themes for each day:
Monday - Colours Day
Tuesday - Artastic Nature
Wednesday - Fiesta Fun
Thursday - Movies
Friday - Fabulous Feelings Friday

Discounts are available for siblings and for NHS and hospice staff.

The February half term holiday camp is open 8am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, at St Johns Primary School, Clay Lane Grove, Colchester  and booking is essential.
