Holiday Activity Camps
At Monkton we have developed an outstanding and highly acclaimed programme of childcare and activities which are designed to keep your child occupied - physically, mentally and creatively, during the school holidays.
Our Minis and Muckers programme runs through most of the school holidays, and, alongside this we have created shorter bespoke courses from Children's Culinary School to Rookie Lifeguarding.
This page is regularly updated with new activities and camps for each school holiday.
