Free Family Activities from Daventry Town Council

Daventry Town Council is excited to host a programme of free school holiday activities once again during the February Half Term. The various activities will run throughout the week of 17th to 21st February and hope to keep kids busy for less, plus, help young people stay active, learn new skills, and have fun.

Children can choose from four fun activities and are welcome to attend as many as they like throughout the week.

A popular event from previous school holidays, Football For All Drop-in Sessions feature free, professional coaching and a fun kickabout on the park for football fans. Families can also join a free Game On Session at local board game café Zepic Games and Events, where there are games galore that all ages will love. Simply drop-in on the day to get involved.

Daventry Museum will be hosting a drop-in Makes in the Museum Event, where children can get crafty creating colourful birds, stained glass sun catchers, and beautiful blossom trees. There will also be a scavenger hunt around the museum, giving you a great excuse to explore the fascinating Folk Art Exhibition that is currently on display.

Families can also make a splash with our Swim and Save Free Kids' Swimming Sessions at Daventry Leisure Centre, which can be pre-booked by visiting the leisure centre reception.

Mayor of Daventry Cllr Karen Tweedale said:

"Don't miss out on an amazing array of fun-filled activities this February half term, carefully organized by our fantastic team. It's the perfect opportunity for an unforgettable time with your child, so we hope to see you there."

This free programme of half term activities is funded and organised by Daventry Town Council to support local families and young people.

Activities are also being planned for the Easter and summer holidays, with full dates and details published nearer the time at www.daventrytowncouncil.gov.uk.
