"Children are extremely excited as they enter the activity camp and are exceedingly eager to join in. Staff offer a vast range of activities that children find inspiring, challenging and absorbing"

My children have attended Barracudas Chelmsford camp for over 5 years now and they've always had a great experience. There's loads of different activities on offer and the staff are always friendly and enthusiastic. I would highly recommend. Kerrie

My daughter (5 years) has attended Baracudas Chelmsford for 3 weeks this Summer and the 2 weeks at Easter. At bed time the other day she said to me "Baracudas is the best place ever". As a parent you cant ask for more than that, the camp is safe, well supervised and the Children just love that they get to pick their own activities. I will definitely be bringing her back next year. Samantha B
