Easter 2024 holiday activities and fun
Our programme of free activities for the Easter holidays is now open for booking. As before, we’ve teamed up with a range of local organisations to offer something for everyone – from sports and drama, to arts, crafts, and trips to exciting venues.
You need to book your activity in advance. Places are allocated on first-come, first-served basis and are prioritised for children eligible for benefit related Free School Meals. We will also have a number of places available on a first come, first served basis for children who are experiencing hardship, but who do not receive Free School Meals.
How to book
Families who receive benefit related free school meals will receive a HAF Code via email or text message. This code will enable you to access a webpage with details of all activities and book your child’s space. Please ensure you follow the link and instructions in the message. Please note each code is unique to each family. Families with more than one child will receive a code for each child.
If you haven’t received a HAF code and your child receives benefit related free school meals, or if you require any support with bookings, contact HAFProgramme@lewisham.gov.uk.
We also have a number of places available on a first come, first serve basis for parents and carers who are experiencing hardship, but whose children do not receive Free School Meals. Email the team on the email address above if you’d like to apply for one of these places.
