Weekly themes and Friday Finale at camp for 2024
We're all about the fun at Barracudas. Kids are entertained and energised with our unrivalled activities every day.
We like to shake things up at our holiday clubs! Each week, children can enjoy activities tweaked to our weekly theme. Whether they're joining us for a day or the whole holiday, our weekly themes mean there's always something fresh and exciting going on.
Barracudas has always been about choice, with children getting to choose their activity for each of our 6 daily sessions. Our fun spin on a variety of activities are a great addition and give them the opportunity to be part of something special and unique each week.
The excitement builds up to our Friday Finales. With a unique special event, there's always a buzz on the last day of the week at camp. On top of that, kids are invited to dress up on the last day of the week by coming in outfits that match the theme. Of course, it's their choice to dress up. We love seeing their imaginations run wild.
Here's snapshot of what's in store for 2024:
