Details of Renfrewshire's October holiday activity camps are announced
Paisley Buddies are being reminded Active Schools Renfrewshire has announced OneRen’s activity camps are back for the October holidays.
Running from October 14 to October 18, the camps bring together a range of activities which will help pack the days off school with a fun, energised and action-packed programme.
The camps provide a week filled with a mixture of indoor and outdoor sports and activities, football fun and disability sessions to choose from.
Sessions for those in primaries one and two will help children to learn new skills and make new friends, and include:
Multi-activity camps at On-X Linwood: Trained staff will deliver a variety of sports and activities including dance, archery, basketball, tennis and much more. This camp will include indoor/outdoor sports, a bouncy castle, outdoor challenges and adventures no matter what the weather.
OneRen fun football camp at Park Mains High School: Young players who attend may be taking their first steps in the game or be more experienced players who wish to work towards the elite player development programme.
Each day will follow football-related themes designed by experienced Scottish FA qualified coaches and in line with the national player pathway, which will allow players to develop their technique through individual and group skill practices along with small-sided games.
Fiona Watson, sport and health manager at OneRen, said: “Our teams are all set to deliver our fantastic October activity programme.
“Whether it’s enjoying physical activities or football, dance and indoor sport or amazing outdoor activities in the countryside and on the water, there really is something for everyone to take part in. It really is the ideal way to keep the kids entertained during the school holidays.
“We hope everyone can take part and avoid claims that there’s nothing to do during the school break! The camps are hugely popular so get booking now to avoid any disappointment.”
The hugely popular outdoors multi-activity camp is also back for P7s to S6 pupils at various venues between October 14 and October 18. Each day will focus on a different activity such as rock climbing, paddle sports and mountain biking.
In addition to these camps, there is also a disability sport and activity session for P1 to S6 kids – on Tuesday, October 15 from 12.45pm to 2.15pm – and a disability water polo session on Thursday, October 17, from 1pm to 2pm, at the Lagoon Leisure Centre in Paisley.
These sessions are available to any family with a young person with a disability and/or sensory impairment.
A parent or guardian must stay with the participant for the duration of the multi-activity session but they are actively encouraged to take part as well.
This programme allows all the family to take part in fun activities locally in Renfrewshire. For more information and to book, visit www.oneren.org/sport
