SCHOOL HOLIDAYS

SELFA run a fun-packed programme of activities for children and young people aged 4-19 (up to 25 with SEND), of all abilities, throughout the year, including during school holidays (Easter, Summer and Christmas).

We understand that school holidays can be difficult for children and young people as routines are disrupted and they can lack opportunities to interact with peers. At SELFA, we provide opportunities and a safe, supportive environment to ensure that all children and young people can continue to build resilience, thrive, and achieve in the school holidays.

Examples of past school holiday activities include baking, crafts, team sports, farm visits, nature walks, canal boat rides, trampolining, pantomimes, caving and much more!

SELFA’s Children & Young People’s Workers plan and deliver holiday activities in the following groups:

In Skipton
> Reception to Year 3
> Years 3 to 6
> Secondary-age

In North Craven
> Primary-age (based in Settle)
> Primary-age (based in Bentham)
> Secondary-age (usually based in Bentham)

SEND
> For young people aged 4 to 25, who cannot access sessions independently, to attend with a parent/carer. We usually offer a mixture of centre-based sessions with lots of sensory play, games and crafts and trips out. The rest of the family, including siblings, are welcome to join for most sessions.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please don’t hesitate to email us. You can also check our diary to find out about upcoming events!

We aim to provide a hot meal at each holiday session.

Siblings are also invited to our SEND holiday sessions!

We aim to get outdoors as much as possible.

We provide young children with new experiences.
