School holidays

In the past, antisocial behaviour and juvenile crime escalated during school holidays at Bishops Green.  We now ensure that children and young people aged between 8 and 16 have somewhere to go and something to do 5 days a week during school holidays.

We work with the Youth Council to organise a programme of Sports, Art, and Play Activities as well as subsidised transport to leisure facilities.

Highlights of our Holiday Scheme 2011 included:

Workshops with Free Style Footballer Dan Cutting
Play Scheme open 3 days a week with art, crafts, sports and rockets!
Basketball Coaching with Reading Rockets
Graffiti Workshop with professional spray can artist.
Residential trip to Avon Tyrrell Activity Centre in the New Forest
Paultons Park trip for the younger age group

New Forest Water Park for the older age group
