Easter Holiday Clubs: The Ultimate Spring Break Experience

The arrival of the easter holidays marks a refreshing shift from the cold winter months into a season of growth and energy.

For many parents, this school holiday brings the familiar challenge of finding a balance between reliable childcare and an experience that children genuinely enjoy. At Xtra Time, we have over 20 years of experience in running a premier holiday club that focuses on physical health, social confidence, and creative fun.
While many families are already looking ahead to the summer holidays, the spring break is a vital time for children to recharge their batteries. Our clubs offer a professional environment where children can stay active and engaged, ensuring they return to school feeling refreshed and inspired.

Why Choose Our Multi-Activity Camps?

We believe that a successful school holiday needs variety to keep children motivated throughout the week. Our multi activity camps are designed to provide a “best of both worlds” experience. One morning might be spent on the football pitch with our UEFA A Licensed coaches, while the afternoon is dedicated to a quiet, focused session of arts and crafts.
This balanced approach ensures that every child, regardless of their interests, finds something they love. We offer a diverse range of sessions, including:
• Professional Sports Coaching: High energy football, rugby, and athletics.
• Creative Expression: Themed arts and crafts projects to spark imagination.
• Social Games: Team building challenges that improve communication skills.
• STEM Discovery: Problem solving tasks that keep young minds sharp.

Why XTRA Time?

At Xtra Time, we make sports fun, inclusive, and engaging for every child, regardless of their ability or experience.

At Xtra Time, we do more than teach sports; we help children develop key life skills that will benefit them in all aspects of life.

Our team is made up of dedicated professionals who are not only skilled in coaching but are also passionate about inspiring young athletes.

We believe that introducing children to sport in a positive way lays the foundation for a healthy and active lifestyle.

Specialised Care for Early Years and Older Children

At Xtra Time, we understand that a four year old has very different needs than a twelve year old. That is why our clubs are tailored specifically for children aged 4 to 12. We take great care in grouping children by age and ability to ensure the activities are always “just right” for their developmental stage.
For our early years attendees, the focus is on “learning through play.” We provide a nurturing environment where our youngest members feel secure as they build their basic motor skills and social confidence. For older children aged 8 to 12, we turn up the intensity with more advanced sports tactics, leadership challenges, and competitive tournaments that keep them fully engaged.
