n Staff provide a wide range of purposeful opportunities for children to develop their physical skills. They make effective use of the spacious outdoor area to engage children in group games, such as Scavenger hunts and 'What's the Time, Mr Wolf?', which promote teamwork and cooperation. Children work collaboratively as they search for hidden balls, demonstrating strong social and problem-solving skills. Children also take part in group games using a parachute, laughing together as they lift it up and down, developing their social skills in a fun and active way. These experiences contribute positively to children's physical development, coordination, and overall health and well-being. n Children learn to be independent in a variety of ways.

21 July 2025 n The environment is thoughtfully planned, engaging, and offers children a range of stimulating challenges. Children participate in a variety of activities that help build their balance, coordination, and motor skills. For example, they enjoy circus-style activities, such as walking across narrow beams, crawling through tunnels, and balancing on stilts. Additionally, they climb and clamber over climbing frames, enhancing their physical strength and coordination. n Children learn how to make healthy choices. This is particularly evident at snack and lunchtime, when children are encouraged to bring in healthy packed lunches and are encouraged to stay hydrated after physical activities. n Staff consistently reinforce high expectations for children's behaviour, promoting a culture of respect, kindness, and cooperation. Children respond positively, playing harmoniously and showing consideration for one another during

activities. Imaginative play with small-world mini beasts, role play with dressing- up clothes, and collaborative construction or vehicle play on car mats provide valuable opportunities for children to develop their social skills, take turns, and negotiate roles respectfully. n Staff are caring, proficient, and knowledgeable about the camp and the children. Many staff return to work each holiday and build strong relationships with the children. The staff team meets every morning before the children arrive to review the day's activities and discuss any specific needs of the children attending. This helps staff feel confident and well-prepared to meet the needs of the children in their group. n Leaders ensure that all staff complete safeguarding training, including the 'Prevent' duty, before starting work at the camps. Safeguarding responsibilities are regularly reinforced during daily morning briefings. Leaders also review
