Holiday Activities
Warwick Schools Foundation has an extensive programme of holiday clubs and courses open to pupils from all schools, which run throughout holiday time across the course of the year.
They are open to all children from Reception to Year 7 (up to and including 12-year-olds) and are a fun way to experience new or favourite activities in a stunning environment with experienced and enthusiastic staff.
The range of courses includes Swimming, Cricket, Art and Craft, Football, Multi-Sports, Pottery, Badminton, Cookery, Animation, Wall Climbing and Netball to name but a few. For further details about the next holiday activities that are on offer, please see below.
During select holidays, we also run our Action Plus programme for 12- to 14-year-olds, which includes a wide range of exciting on and off-site outings and activities. Please see below for further details.

The School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

Holiday Action is the best holiday club around! I can't say enough good things about it. My daughter has attended several clubs over the years and this one truly stands out. The range of activities is simply incredible, there's so many new and exciting activities for my daughter to try and she is always super excited when she comes home.
