So disappointing
Our children have always loved the sports holiday camps run by Premier at their own primary school but this summer was very different. They reported that they played no games other than dodgeball; they were either inside or outside and when outside had nothing to do/no activities were planned. They complained of having to clear up after lunchtime once everyone else had gone home (we paid for extra time until 4pm each day). They also reported that those who were on free school meals (not our children) were separated from the others and it was very much a ‘them and us’ environment which they didn’t like. My son felt as though he was moaned at all day one day for one thing he did wrong (which he apologised for and which was dealt with in the morning but kept on being raised). I also struggled to find an option to pay with tax free childcare account and ended up having to pay normally which meant I didn’t get the tax benefit. I’m afraid, having had Premier as a failsafe option for school holiday club, this is no longer the case and our children won’t be attending again. Such a shame especially when our children have always been so positive about it in the past.
