Planet Action Holiday Club will run for ONE FULL DAY (10am until 4pm on Wednesday 25th August 2021) where we will focus on sustainability, nature and wildlife, encouraging your children to LOVE the Earth. It is aimed at children aged 5-11yrs unaccompanied. Younger children are welcome but must be accompanied by an adult.

We are running our Planet Action Holiday Club at Farleigh Ecohub (EX16 8HR), our purpose built site in beautiful, rural Mid-Devon. These are outdoor sessions which inspire kids to LOVE the Earth! These sessions can be unaccompanied (by parents and carers for children aged 5-11yrs) however parents/carers are encouraged to stay and attend the sessions or explore the surroundings if they would like to.

Suitable for families keen to get inspired and have fun exploring our environmental themes, these sessions are adapted for a mixed age-group.

Throughout the day there are four themes based on our 'LOVE the Earth' structure.

* L is for Learn

* O is for Observe

* V is for inVolve

* E is for Enjoy

All sessions include:

• Access to a planet-friendly community
• Experienced group leaders with the relevant skills and qualifications (DBS)
• A structured programme to learn through play
• Lots of free time to play and socialise
• Water and homemade gluten, dairy and nut free refreshments
