Every child has interests they haven't discovered yet…
That's why our guest workshops are such an important part of Indigo. Throughout Holiday Club, children meet inspiring local artists, musicians and creative specialists who open the door to new skills, new ideas and new passions. Sometimes all it takes is one experience to spark a lifelong interest. ✨
Because you never know where creativity might lead. 💜
In just a few weeks' time there'll be muddy trainers by the door, paint on sleeves, flour in hair, sticky fingers, huge smiles and children proudly carrying home something they've spent all day creating. There'll be bug hunts, woodland adventures, baking sessions, nature trails, messy masterpieces and those magical moments where imaginations take over and anything feels possible.
That's what summer at Indigo is all about.
We don't believe childhood should be rushed, and we definitely don't believe summer should be spent staring at screens. We believe in giving children the freedom to create, explore, make friends, get wonderfully messy and discover just how amazing they really are.
Some children arrive excited. Some arrive a little nervous. Some have never picked up a paintbrush or made something from clay before. By the end of the day they're laughing together, proudly showing off their creations and already asking if they can come back tomorrow. Watching those friendships grow and confidence blossom is one of our favourite parts of every summer.
It's never just about the arts and crafts. It's about the stories they'll tell, the memories they'll make and the feeling of being completely free to be themselves.
If you're looking for somewhere your child can enjoy a proper childhood summer, we'd love to welcome them to Indigo.
💛 Making things.
💛 Making friends.
💛 Making magical memories.
🌻 Our Summer Holiday Club starts on 20th July at Caton Primary School, and places are filling fast. We can't wait to do it all over again.
We’ve had a wonderful first two days at our May Half Term Holiday Club! ☀️
The children have enjoyed a wide range of activities including designing nature-themed fabric drawstring bags, taking part in a village nature trail, creating healthy fruit kebabs, playing creative group games and visiting the play park. It has been lovely to see so much creativity, enthusiasm and teamwork over the last two days, with plenty of smiles and fun along the way! ☀️🍦🎨🖌️🍓🍌🍍🍉🍇
We’re looking forward to the final two days, with even more exciting art and craft activities still to come! 🎨🌿✨

What a wonderful way to finish our Easter Holiday Club on Friday! 🌿✨
The children had a brilliant day getting creative and working together, designing their own tote bags, inventing and leading their own reverse scavenger hunts, and collaborating to build an impressive giant nest! Alongside all of this, there was plenty of time for imaginative play, exploring, and developing those all-important large motor skills in our incredible outdoor space.
It really has been two fun-filled weeks in such a fantastic location, and we’re so grateful for every moment shared. We can hardly believe schools go back today!
Wishing all of our families the very best of luck as you head into the summer term, we hope it’s a happy and successful one for you all. 💛🌼

🌿✨ Our penultimate day of holiday club may have brought a little rain, but that certainly didn’t dampen our spirits! 🌧️💛
The children embraced all things spring as they took part in a team leaf identification challenge, full of curiosity, teamwork and lots of excitement (they absolutely loved it!). 🍃🔍
It was also a very special day as we celebrated a birthday! 🥳 We made sure it was one to remember, with some fun party games before lunch, lots of smiles, and a lovely sense of togetherness.
After an active morning, we enjoyed a cosy movie to start the afternoon - well deserved after all that creativity and fresh air! 🎬🍿
To round off a jam-packed day, we slowed things down with some mindful observation, carefully studying flowers and leaves at the craft tables, before bringing them to life through delicate sketches and beautiful watercolour paintings. 🎨🌸
Rain or shine, days like these are what holiday club is all about 💚 ✨🌿

What a beautiful start we had to Week 2 of Easter Holiday Club! ☀️ We couldn’t have ordered the weather more perfectly, and we definitely made the most of every sunny moment.
Highlights from Tuesday and Wednesday were creating stunning marbling pictures, making chocolate nests, The Big Easter Egg Hunt (part two!) and getting hands-on designing and making our very own live miniature gardens. 🌱✨ The creativity on display was just amazing!
Of course, there was plenty of time for free play in the sunshine, along with a woodland nature hunt that sparked lots of curiosity and adventure. 🌿🪵

What a fantastic final day of Easter Holiday Club Week 1! 🐣✨
We got creative with Easter cards and colourful collages, explored the outdoors through woodland play, and then came the big highlight… our Easter egg hunt! 🍫🌿
With 120 eggs hidden around the grounds, the children teamed up, worked together brilliantly, and had so much fun searching high and low. Everyone went home with some chocolate treats, and our winning team even scored an extra little prize - well done! 🏆👏🏻
Such a joyful way to wrap up the week. We’ve loved every minute and can’t wait to do it all again in Week 2! Spaces are still available if you’d like to join us.
