LATEST UPDATE: 22.02.2021
Following government guidance confirming that all schools will re-open from 8th March 2021, we are now allowed to run our Easter 2021 camps. We will be following government guidance on Covid-19 safety and social distancing and will continue to implement all measures required of Covid-19 settings.
Our team has been working hard over the past few months to adapt our missions and develop policies and procedures that allow us to safely reopen our camps. We are a Covid-secure venue and have been implementing a number of additional safety measures, including mission bubbles of 8 children, social distancing outside the bubbles and outdoors-only activities. The full list of additional safety measures we're taking is available in our Covid-19 policy, per below.

Social distancing & Mission bubbles
We follow social distancing rules and the latest government guidance for schools and childcare settings.
In practice this means that we have implemented a number of key changes to the way in which our missions usually run. This includes (but is not limited to) the following:
- Contact-free registration and pick-up
- Staggered drop-off and pick-up
- Ongoing use of hand-sanitizing gel throughout the day
- Enhanced cleaning procedures throughout the day
- Much smaller mission bubbles
- Day-long mission bubbles for children, including break and lunchtimes
- Five-day bookings only to keep children's groups consistent
- Time almost exclusively spent outside (except for toilet use)
- Strict social distancing measures for toilet use
- Adapted mission activities to avoid contact and sharing of resources
- Limited kit and limited sharing of kit (shared kit will be disinfected throughout the day)
- A pause on the Friday showcase
- Compulsory collection of NHS Test and Trace data, kept for 21 days
