If your child is entitled to benefit related free school meals this is a totally free day as it is funded by South Gloucestershire Council and your child will receive a lunch. Please see the following link for more information and to book - St Peter's Primary - BSF Holiday Club with Bristol Sport Foundation · Eequ

This is open to all children aged between 5 & 12 (FSM families 5-11) and you don't have to attend our school so bring your friends, cousins or siblings along! You can also use your tax free childcare vouchers to pay saving even more money!

This is an exciting opportunity for the school and our families as we know childcare can be an issue during the holidays and if this goes well we hope to host more holiday clubs in the future breaks such as Easter & the summer holidays.

If you have any questions please speak to me in the office.
