News, events and schools' information for families across Bath and West Wiltshire

Active Camps for children aged from 4-13 years are coming to Wellsway Sports Centre and Farmborough Primary School throughout the Easter break, thanks to the team from Progressive Sports Bath & North Somerset. The camps will provide children with the opportunity to try out a variety of different sports and games, as well as make new friends in a safe, secure and engaging environment.

“Our qualified coaching team will deliver and supervise sports such as archery, football, cricket, rounders, dodgeball, tag rugby, handball, tennis, badminton, volleyball, foot-golf and ultimate frisbee, as well as creative team building games and activities like den building, treasure hunts and group hide and seek,” explained James McTiernan from Progressive Sports. “The camps are based at Wellsway Sports Centre and Farmborough Primary School where we have access to a large and secure outdoor playing area. We also have indoor space at both sites so children will be able to stay active and enjoy themselves whatever the weather.

“At Progressive Sports we believe that every child should have the opportunity to be active and we exist to inspire and encourage this. We are currently in partnership with a number of schools across the Bath & North East Somerset region, including those within the Futura Trust and Farmborough Primary. Both have been kind enough to let us use their facilities over the holidays to offer children in the local area the chance to learn and experience new sports and activities.

“We also believe that our Active Camps provide parents in the area with an affordable, safe and assured childcare option.”

The Progressive Sports Active Camps run from 9am until 3.30pm every week day, and children should bring a packed lunch, refreshments and clothing appropriate for sports. The cost per child is £25 per day and there are discounts for siblings. Parents also have the option to pay using childcare vouchers – please contact James directly at email hidden; JavaScript is required to arrange this.
