No Screens Policy

At Move More Camps we have a no screens policy. It has been well documented that some children are spending too much time on screens and this can have a negative effect on their health & mental well being.

Therefore our camps are largely active with children taking part in many different sports and games throughout a typical day. There are some down times throughout the day, as it is a long day for children to be active throughout, but these will be filled with activities such as arts & crafts or board games.

camp essentials

On sunny days please ensure that sun cream has been applied before arriving at camp

Early Years Provision

Our early years camps are for children from 3- 7 years old. This provision is registered within the Ofsted early years register, our other camp provision is registered within the voluntary childcare register. Our early years provision only takes place during the school holidays, therefore we do not need to meet the learning and development requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, however, we do need to be guided by these requirements.

Due to the nature of the charity we widely advocate children to be active, but also strongly believe in other factors which helps create a well rounded child. Therefore our provision includes lots of physical activities, as well as lots of other activities – please see examples within the photo gallery.
