What it’s like
Holiday club and sports coaching for kids from 4, mixing cricket and gymnastics training with dance, swimming, soft play and cooking sessions.
Cricket coaching and gymnastics sessions sit alongside a wider holiday club programme here, so a child who fancies bowling drills one day can switch to soft play, dance or a cooking session the next. It's aimed at kids from age 4 up, and the mix means you're not stuck picking between "sporty camp" or "arts and crafts camp", you get a bit of both under one roof.
Shine is Ofsted registered, which matters if you're using childcare vouchers, and they lean on that wraparound care angle for working parents who need more than a single morning session. They've also got DBS checked staff and a safeguarding policy they'll talk you through if you ask, which is the sort of thing you want ticked off before you leave a four-year-old there all day.
There's a fair bit to sort before you turn up. Sessions need booking in advance, and there's guidance on what equipment gets provided versus what you'll need to bring, plus a specific line on clothing and footwear, so it's worth having that conversation with them rather than guessing. They also cover SEND provision and have a refund policy, both of which are answered directly if you ask before booking.
