Fun & Educational Holiday Clubs

A creative, active holiday club for children aged Reception – Year 7, based at Frogmary Green Farm, South Petherton (near Ilminster & Yeovil).

Our themed days include arts, crafts, outdoor play, cooking, games and creative projects. Children are encouraged to explore new interests, build confidence and enjoy time with others in a relaxed and supportive environment.

Our experienced team understands that all children are different, and many of the young people who attend benefit from a setting that understands neurodiversity and different learning styles.

Two Groups for Twice the Fun!

Young people are divided into two age groups and offered a programme of activities designed to provide interest and challenge at the right level. Children generally stay within their groups for activities and play time, but we also bring everyone together at certain points during the day. Our premises is the perfect size to give groups their own space, while still keeping everyone close by.

We book children in Year 2 and younger and Year 3 and older as separate groups to help us manage numbers and staffing ratios.  Year 3 children are generally part of the younger group on the day.  Older siblings are very welcome to spend time with younger siblings if they wish.

To receive the sibling discount across two age groups, simply make sure both bookings are added before completing checkout.

Staying Active, Teamwork and Problem Solving

We spend as much time outdoors as possible. Sports, games and challenges are used to encourage healthy physical activity while helping young people build self-confidence, teamwork and problem-solving skills.

Activities are fresh, varied and designed to include learning opportunities. Many of our themes are chosen by the young people who attend!

Creativity for Everyone

All young people are encouraged to explore their creative side. Whether they use paint, pens, craft materials, leaves, twigs, clay, icing pens, cardboard or Lego, the most important thing is having a go, expressing ideas and enjoying the process.

Themed Sessions

We run up to 60 days of holiday club each year, so themes help us keep sessions varied, interesting and engaging. Topics may include international cultures, history, popular culture, cooking, adventure, nature and more.

Young people don’t need to love the theme to enjoy the day, our sessions always include a variety of activities, and many children discover new interests they didn’t realise they had.

*We welcome children to join once they have started school, as long as they are fully toilet trained.

Our Ethos

Rama Youth encourage young people to form their own opinions and learn how to respect others, that may differ from them.  We encourage discussion and debate in a positive way.  We do not promote or deny any religion, faith or belief system and we are always interested in hearing about the international links that many of our attendees have.

We promote the ethos that art is a personal thing and doesn’t need to  be compared to others.  If you want it to look different, then just keep practicing and remember, that what you may see as “failure”, is just part of the road to success.

We actively encourage being physically active, having good self-care and building communication skills.
