Welcome to our very first virtual summer camp! We're extremely disappointed that we can't operate our popular summer camps across our 48 locations this year but not all hope has been lost. We decided, lets bring the FUN to you in your very own home!
Over the course of the next 5 weeks, we'll be bringing daily videos for you to watch with a range of activities you would have found at camp - as well as a few new ones!
And don't put away those fancy dress boxes just yet, we haven't forgotten about our theme days! Each Friday we'll be bringing you a new theme that we would love you to take part in (we know we will be!). You can find more information about this below.
We're so excited to be hosting this camp and really hope it brings you enjoyment whilst learning some great new skills! If you take any photos or videos whilst participating in these sessions, please feel free to share these with us, we would love to see how you are getting on and we're planning an end of camp video montage of everything you've been up to!
Schedule
Every Friday we will update our schedule for the following week. These videos will be uploaded daily at 9am on our Facebook page and YouTube channel!
Theme Days
For those who are regular to our camps, you will know that every Friday on camp is Theme Day. We know how much fun these days can be and we didn't want you to be missing out this year!
We would love for you to take part at home. Send us your pictures or tag us on social media!
31st July: Wacky Hair Day
It's time to get wacky! Let's see who can have the craziest hair!
7th August: Dress up as your hero
Who do you aspire to be? It could be your favourite celebrity, footballer, cartoon character or your own family members!
14th August: A long time ago...
Take a flick through your history books and choose something or someone that was around before you were born. It could be someone from the Victorians or you could go back billions of years to the dinosaurs.
21st August: Superheros vs Villains
Which side will you choose?
28th August: No theme Friday!
For the last theme day this summer we are passing the reins to you! What will you chose to be today?
Barracudas Got Talent
Don't worry, we haven't forgotten about our popular talent show - Barracudas Got Talent!
We want YOU to get involved. Send us your photos and videos to be part of the big Barracudas Got Talent video that will be played at the end of the summer in a big Virtual Camp finale!
It can either be something you learnt from our videos or your own special talent.
Send your pictures and videos to fun@barracudas.co.uk or send them via social media!
Parent Resources
We know that this is a hard time not just for the kids but for the parents to. If you feel like you are stuck in a rut and not sure what to do with the kids next (well in between the Barracudas sessions!) we have put together some helpful resources which we hope will help.
