Our next Holiday Club will run on Mon 21st, Tue 22nd and Wed 23rd December.
Please call our reception team on 0151 705 8000 to book a place.
(Reception phone line opening times below)
A full session starts at 9am (with staggered drop off times from 8.30am, allocated when booking) and runs until 5.30pm (with staggered pick-up times until 6pm) and costs £15, the small increase covering the required additional staffing, cleaning and equipment.
Half day provision costs £8 and can be booked as an AM or PM session (bookings will have staggered arrival and collection times and will be given at time of booking by our reception team)
AM session is 9.10am – 1pm
PM session is 1.30pm – 6.10pm
All places must be paid for over the ‘phone by card at the time of booking if possible, however we are able to accept cash payments at our reception. As part of the arrival of our members we will also be doing temperature checks, and any young person who has a high temperature will not be able to attend.
We would ask that young people bring along a water bottle with their name on to their session. (One member of staff wearing gloves will be able to refill this for them)
Whilst working with many restrictions we are delighted to be able to reopen and to once again welcome young people to The Hive where we aim to ensure that all who come will have an enjoyable, fun and safe time.
