Our theme days are a great excuse for everyone to dress up and have a good time! You don't have to spend hours or fortunes making or buying costumes in advance (unless you want to) as the children will be able to make outfits and props during camp. Happening once a week, these days create a great atmosphere on camp! So whether they've always wanted to be their favourite sports star, princess, pirate or superhero their dreams can come true during theme days.
Our theme days for 2018 have now been finalised, see below for further details
February
Valentine’s Day – Friday 16th February
Valentine’s Day is all about showing people you care and being extra nice to each other. Let’s show the love by wearing red. Or if you have something with pink, hearts or flowers on that’s good too!
NB: Only our Huntington camp is operating during this season
Easter
Around the world in 80 ways – Friday 6th April
There are so many wonderful different cultures, festivals and foods across the globe. Let’s try and represent as many as possible at camp today! You could wear the national dress of another country or bright colours to represent particular festivals celebrated across the globe.
Futuristic fun – Friday 13th April
Today we’re travelling faster than the speed of light into the future. You could get inspired by your favourite sci-fi movie and come as an alien, an astronaut, a Jedi, a robot or even a space ship. Or come as your future self by dressing up as what you want to be when you grow up.
May
Welcome to Neverland! – Friday 1st June
Faith, trust and a little pixie dust! You might fancy sprinkling a little magic around camp by coming as Tinkerbell. You might want to dress up as a pirate or Captain Hook, Peter Pan or Wendy. Remember it’s the second star to the right and straight on ‘til morning…

Summer
In the jungle, the mighty jungle… – Friday 20th July
…the lion sleeps tonight. And so do the snakes, monkeys, tigers and birds. You could come as a jungle creature or part of the jungle itself! Brown trousers and a green t-shirt can turn you into a jungle tree or bright orange and yellow clothes will mean you shine as bright as the summer sun!
A long time ago… – Friday 27th July
Flick through your history books and take a look at who walked the earth before you were born. Go as far back as you like and come to camp dressed as a dinosaur, caveman/woman or even an Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh.
Sports day – Friday 3rd August
On your marks, get set, dress up! Here at Barracudas every day’s a sports day. But join us in the ultimate sports day dress up. Why not pick your favourite sportsman or sportswoman and spend the day in their trainers?
Wacky socks, crazy locks! – Friday 10th August
It’s time to get colourful!! Today’s the day where you can pull up your socks and come to camp with a crazy new hairdo! Get creative and colour or style your hair along with wearing the wackiest pair of socks in your top draw.
Save the day! – Friday 17th August
Hero or Villain? We each have our favourite hero or villain. Barracudas invites you to dress up as yours! Will you be causing the mischief or saving the day? You could come as a superhero or an everyday hero like a doctor, nurse, soldier or fireman.
Circus and Carnival – Friday 24th August
Let’s bring these festivals of fun on to camp today. Get into the carnival spirit by wearing bright colours, a head dress, feathers or a Hawaiian shirt. Or get clowning around by wearing spots and stripes.
October
The Wild Wild West – Friday 26th October
Howdy Partner… today at camp we’re riding back to the Wild Wild West! Grab a bandana and a waist coat to come as a cowboy or put some feathers in your hair and come as a Native American. You could even get yourself a badge and hat and come as the sheriff or take some inspiration from Toy Story and come as Woody or Jessie!
