OUT OF SCHOOL

All children and young people need to ‘play’. The impulse to play is innate. Play is a biological, psychological and social necessity, and is fundamental to the healthy development and well being of individuals and communities. Play is a process that is freely chosen, personally directed and intrinsically motivated. That is, children and young people determine and control the content and intent of their play, by following their own instincts, ideas and interests, in their own way for their own reasons.

At Crazy 4 Kids we will act as facilitators to children’s play, supporting the children in all they do. We will make available to the children a range of activities that the children will be free to choose from, i.e. arts and crafts, puzzles, board games, exploration, role play, cooking and outdoor and indoor team games. These activities will be the ‘core’ activities that will be available at every session; we will enhance these by offering ‘specialist’ activities. 

Outdoor/Physical Play
Is very important for maintaining children’s physical health and well being. All clubs either have their own outdoor areas or where this is limited, we will use the local parks or school playing fields.  All children are encouraged to take part in any outdoor activities offered and to make use of the outdoors

  • Favourite Activities include:
  • Tree Climbing
  • Den Building
  • Team Games
  • Parachute Play
  • Skateboards and Scooters
  • Racquet Games
  • Gardening

We also offer specialist coaching in holiday clubs along with external visits and outings.

Traditions and Festivals
Children will be involved in exploring different traditions and festivals around the world, and will be provided with activities relating to the festival or tradition that we are celebrating. This will enable children to explore the ways in which different cultures live and celebrate.

School Holidays & Teacher Training Days
A variety of exciting activities are offered, including Discos, Adventure Playground / Local Park Visits, Pool Parties, Bouncy Castle Days and new to Crazy 4 Kids The Circus School.

SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disability)

We are committed to taking appropriate action to make sure that all children are able to access our services, made to feel welcome, and that our activities promote their welfare and development. 

Crazy 4 Kids is committed to the integration of all children in its’ care. Crazy 4 Kids also believes that children with special educational needs and/or physical disabilities have a right to play, learn and be able to develop to their full potential alongside other children. Whenever possible, children with special educational needs and/or physical disabilities will have access to the same facilities, activities and play opportunities as their peers. Everybody stands to gain if all children are allowed to share the same opportunities and are helped to overcome any disadvantages that they may face. Crazy 4 Kids are also featured on ‘The Local Offer’.
