We're delighted to announce that, in partnership with Rattle and Roll, we are able to offer some holiday clubs here at William Lilley. Rattle & Roll already work across school providing sports coaching once a week to our Year One and Two children and running our very popular after school sports clubs. The holiday clubs are open to all local families and bookings are made directly through Rattle and Roll. Free places are available for pupils eligible for Pupil Premium.
The Nottinghamshire holiday activities and food (HAF) programme is here to help children to stay active and happy during the school holidays. HAF can also help familes with parents who need to work, or have other people to look after. Click on the document below for more information.
