We understand that every child is unique, brimming with their own set of talents, interests, and boundless energy. Our holiday camps are designed to cater to these diverse needs, providing a nurturing environment where creativity blossoms and new friendships are forged.

We offer reliable childcare in our sessions, which are always run in a secure location, so your child’s safety is ensured even outside! Breakfast and snacks are included in the cost of the session, and we offer flexible drop off and pick up times to try and make childcare even easier for you! Summer holiday camp, half term camp, Christmas holiday camp and more!

A few words from our happy parents:

“My daughter absolutely loves The Creation Station, she has so much fun and can't wait to go again.”

“I booked my daughter into the summer holiday club and she absolutely loved it! The staff are so welcoming and friendly and there is a great variety of creative and craft activities to keep the children occupied all day. I will definitely be sending my daughter to these holiday clubs again in the future.”

“A fantastic day packed with a great variety of activities. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a holiday club for a child who loves to be creative.”

What we get up to at Creation Station Holiday Camps:

Creative Workshops: Dive into a world of colour and imagination with our creative workshops. Children can try their hand at painting, sculpture, and even digital art, discovering new techniques and unleashing their inner artist.

Outdoor Games: Fresh air, with fun and games and creative adventures making new friends and being active, there's plenty to keep those young muscles moving and minds sharp.

Themed Days: Each week, we host special themed days that bring a new dimension of excitement to our camps. Whether it's a pirate adventure, a space exploration day, or a superhero showdown, these themed events are always a highlight.

Did you know that we also offer discounts for siblings and NHS staff?
