Dear Irfaan,

 

Our University College has a sports centre open to the public and runs a holiday club for children aged over about 7/8 in the main school holidays (Easter and Summer).  I don’t have the exact details but as a parent I have experience of the types of activities run (football, games, swimming) and I know these are used by both student and staff for their children in holiday time to help them balance their work/study.

 

If you need, I can provide you with the email address of the member of staff here who has been responsible for coordinating the holiday club so that you can ask the questions you need answers to.

Best wishes,

 

Lyn

Dear All,

 

I have recently been approached by a member of staff at the University asking about childcare provisions such as holiday clubs for children on midterm breaks, or provisions for parents with children starting part-time at primary school. Unfortunately, although we have nursery facilities on campus we don’t have anything for children once they have left nursery. I was wondering what kind of provisions other Universities had for parents with children  above 4 years old and what kind of issues you have come up against if you have tried setting up anything.

 

I look forward to hearing from you. If you like you can respond to my email address on [log in to unmask] or respond to the group as a whole.

 

Many thanks
