Eastbury Nursery & Pre-School in Dagenham and Angel Pre-School in Pimlico are hosting the free holiday clubs to help young children from disadvantaged homes, many of whom have missed out on nursery education during lockdown, to catch up with lost learning and narrow the attainment gap.
The holiday clubs have been designed to boost activity levels and decrease sedentary time in young children. Activities include football coaching, dance, hoop ball, movement, yoga and meditation, speech and language activities, music and reading.
In addition, children are being taught how to cook healthy meals along with their parents (without using sugar) and then given a special Meal Deal. This includes simple recipe cards and all the ingredients to take home.
