Please note: Children under the age of 3 will not be permitted to participate in the Tree House Holiday Programme. This policy is in place to ensure the safety, comfort, and appropriate supervision of all children in our care. Additionally, children showing any signs of being sick or having the flu will not be accepted into the programme. This is to safeguard the well-being of all participants and staff. In both cases, we will unfortunately have to contact the parent or guardian immediately to collect the child. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a fun and safe environment for everyone. Please note that lunch and snack boxes are not included. These can be booked separately, or you are welcome to pack lunch for your child.

What to bring: Sunhat, sunscreen, swimming towel, a change of clothing, swimming costume, water bottle, a snack and well-marked personal items to help ensure we can easily gather the children’s belongings at departure

We have a couple of lunch box options available for kids, but parents are also welcome to send a packed lunch and snacks along with their children.

Note: We’re prepared for all conditions, with a seamless indoor setup if needed in case of rainy weather.
