Christmas Holiday Club Morning 2025!
Saturday 20th December
9.30am – 12.15pm
12.15-1pm Family Lunch
St Andrew’s Church
Let us look after you children for a morning while you get some last-minute Christmas shopping or prep done! We'll have an action-packed morning of games, music, Christmas crafts and more.
You're then invited to join us from 12.15-1pm for a festive family lunch of hot turkey sandwhiches (vegetarian and vegan options available).
Our Holiday Club sessions are for primary school aged children only; it's free but booking is required - see link further down this page for the form.
When and where is it?
Our Christmas Holiday Club Morning is running at St Andrew's Church in Keighley town centre on Saturday 20th December, 9.30am - 12.15pm, followed by family lunch from 12.15-1pm.
We'll provide a mid-morning snack of drinks and biscuits. We ask that your child brings a water bottle if possible, as that makes things easier and avoids spillages.

For safeguarding and capacity reasons we can't let parents stay with their children unless they are a member of the team. If you'd like to help with the holiday club please see the information about 'Joining the Team' further down this page.

Not at all, but you need to be aware that this is a Christian holiday club which will include Bible teaching, worship songs and prayer. We want to give children the opportunity to find out about the Christian faith and explore their own beliefs. There won't be any pressure on children to do or say anything they're not comfortable with.

We will endeavour to cater for additional needs wherever possible. Several of our team have training and experience working with additional needs children and we will have one person with specific oversight of this area. The whole holiday club takes place within the main church worship space, but we’ll have a supervised ‘quiet zone’ for children who need a bit of time away from the main activities.
Please let us know about any additional needs on your registration form so we are aware and can look to put things in place. We will be in touch with you nearer the time to find out more about the support your child might need. If you have any questions or concerns you'd like to discuss first please contact kathryn@keighleyparish.org

That's fine - just put on the registration form which days you expect your child to be attending.

No - it's free!
If you would like to contribute to our costs you are welcome to give a donation here or in person when you drop off/collect your child.
