Summer Schemes in Belfast

Does anyone know of summer schemes or holiday clubs that operate in the Belfast area that a 4 year old boy can attend & roughly what they cost?

thank you

    You need to check that they will take 4 year olds. When I was looking for my son last year quite a few of them weren't insured to take kids younger than 5.

    im in the same boat, most schemes ive looked at will only take school age children, very irritating!!! if you find anything, could you post it here and i will do likewise!!?

    Will let you know if I come across anything. I did phone one of the Belfast leisure centres & their service is for kids over 8. YMCA in Belfast (Stranmills) might have something going to call them later.

    Hi. I am interested in this thread because I am running a summer scheme but unfortunately it is for children who have completed Primary One and it is in the area of dance, drama, music and visual arts. The reason why I have not included children under four is because they would find our programme too challenging. Our scheme is for children who have completed primary One. NI4 kids are running a large section on summer schemes in June and July (you will get a copy in libraries or details on their website) they might have something of interest in there.

    Does anyone have any information on the University of Ulster at Jordonstown schemes as I think they also ran computer workshops which my son would love. I can't find any details anywhere!
  • Hi, i know its late but I was kinda of looking about for something for my two children to do over august, one is 6 years old and the other is 8. I only work 15 hours a week but money is really tight and i need something cheap. I live on the Antrim Road, near the Zoo, so either North Belfast or Newtownabbey would suit me great. If anyone has any ideas of where i could send them or even what i could do with them, it would be greatly appreciated
  • I am looking for the opposite I need a scheme for a 14 year old, she's just past the bracket that most schemes cater for so if anyone knows one in Belfast let me know.
    On another note I called about one today for my other two, this one is based at Seaview stadium and is free of charge which helps. They have a lot of activities on even Laser quest and no football surprisingly. It's worth a try if you have primary school kids.
    I just have the 14 year old now I know the city council ran something but not anymore it seems
