Holiday Club 2024!
6th - 8th August
9am - 12noon
St Andrew’s Church
On your marks... get set... go! Join up with other athletes and take part in the Global Games to discover what it was like for the disciples to follow Jesus and how you can be on his team today!
On Your Marks Holiday Club is three, action-packed mornings of learning and fun for primary school aged children (5-11 year olds). We'll start each day with breakfast then spend some time all together and in small groups exploring some of the stories of Jesus in Mark’s Gospel. There will also be lots of songs, crafts, games and other activities to get involved with. Each child will be assigned to a small group with leaders who will look out for them and be available if they have any questions or worries during the sessions.
When and where is it?
On Your Marks Holiday Club is running at St Andrew's Church in Keighley town centre from Tuesday 6th to Thursday 8th August, 9am - 12 noon
each day. After the final session on Thursday 8th August families are invited to join us for lunch from 12 - 1pm (details will be sent out nearer
the time).
We'll start each day with breakfast and will have a mid-morning snack of drinks and biscuits. We just 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.
-
No, there will be something for everyone and we won’t be undertaking any serious sporting activities. We’ve gone with a sports theme as our holiday club will be running during the Olympics this year; there will be some active team games but there will be plenty of other activities too. We encourage participation but we understand that some children won’t want to join in with certain activities and that’s fine.
-
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.
