Book Early

Many of our children’s holiday camps in Truro sell out quickly, and several specialist workshops run on limited dates. Early booking is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment.

Bookings for Summer 2026 will open at 10am on Monday 22 June Join our mailing list today to receive priority updates and be among the first to secure your child’s place.

Important Booking Information:

To make sure the registration process runs smoothly, please ensure the following:

Book The Correct Child: Make sure to make bookings in the account of the child who will be attending the camp. Please do not book camps under the name of the parent; your child’s place may be at risk if you do so as we will need to remove the named parent and ask you to re-add the child. The place may be taken by someone else in the mean time! This helps us manage each child’s schedule and preferences effectively and saves us having to call you to change the booking.

Multiple Children Bookings: If you are booking for more than one of your children, you should have accounts set up for each child which will be linked to your own account. If you are booking multiple children for the first time, please give us a quick call so we can ensure these accounts are set up and linked correctly. This will allow us to ensure that your ‘primary’ account is linked to your children’s accounts, streamlining the booking process and avoiding any potential issues.

Preparation for Booking:

We recommend taking some time to verify that the correct accounts are set up and ready for booking. This will save time and avoid any last-minute confusion on Monday morning.

How to Initiate a Booking

Click ‘Book Now’ at the bottom of any page or ‘Book Online’ in the top right-hand corner of the website.

To book a camp, first select ‘Activity Camps’, then choose your preferred camp from the menu or use the date filter to find available sessions.

If you are booking an RLSS Rookie Lifeguard course, select ‘Rookie Lifeguard’ from the drop-down menu.

Medical and Consent Form:

Prior to attending activity camps, parents or carers are required to complete a medical and consent form for their child / children attending. Please look out for the link to the form on your booking confirmation. We will also send reminders out in a welcome email a few days prior to the camps commencing. If you have completed this form before you don’t need to do it again.
