Welcome to everyone who's joined us on Help It's The School Holidays. We hope the information on here is of help to you all. We can't possibly know of all the events that are taking place so would ask you to help us by letting us kno

w of any new events that you hear of. This just started as a way for my son's class to meet up during the holidays, I thought it was the easiest way to share things to do, events that were taking place and places to meet up. If you can think of any other ideas that might be needed on this page, let us know....maybe a list of child friendly restaurants etc. We look forward to hearing from you

It's 9.15am!

Out for my dog walk and Castle Batch Park in Worle and the park is already buzzing with squeals of excitement.

A group or club are already taking part in organised team games in the open space, with other families using the apparatus in the play area.

Our green spaces are being used to their full potential, fun, exercise, social and all around well being.... only my phone in sight!

The sun is shining, it's going to be a beautiful day again.

Use and look after these spaces!

Have a fun day 🌞
