St Giles Academy organised and delivered a Christmas Holiday Activity and Food club, funded by Lincolnshire County Council. For four days of the Christmas holidays, 60 children attended the 4 hour sessions, had new experiences, learnt new skills, had a hot meal and had lots of fun! On Monday Fudge and Co from Nottingham brought some exotic animals for the children to handle and learn about such as a skunk, a skink, a python, a tarantula and many more. On Tuesday, a dance group taught the children new dance moves. On Wednesday, a coach took the children to Priory Witham Academy where they had a fun swimming session and had a go at ice-skating! All the children had a great time! On Thursday, the Lincoln fun bus parked up on the playground and the children enjoyed a session of soft play!
In addition the children learnt how to make puff pastry Christmas trees with a yummy chocolate filling, potato salad, twice baked jacket potatoes and a rainbow fruit kebab!
Each day the children had a hot meal provided by Good Lookin’ Cookin’. They also did some crafty activities like making baubles, handprint wreaths and cotton wool snowmen.
The funding for HAF has been secured for the next three years so we will soon be planning our Easter HAF!
A huge thank you to all the staff who gave up some of their Christmas holidays and helped make the Christmas HAF a huge success!!
