Holiday Activity Days at Serendipity

⛱️ For Children Aged 8–12 | 9:30 AM – 3:00 PM | Book Single or Multiple Days

An holiday experience that combines fun, personal growth, and skill development at Serendipity!

Our Holiday Activity Days are carefully designed not only to provide outdoor adventures but also to enhance essential life skills such as communication, confidence, and teamwork, all while having fun with our friendly ponies.

These engaging days offer hands-on activities, nature-based play, and equine-assisted learning—blending enjoyment with personal development in a safe, supportive environment.

🌸 Why Choose Serendipity Holiday Activity Days?

At Serendipity, children don't just have fun—they develop important skills. Our programme focuses on both personal growth and enjoyment, offering:

  • A safe, nurturing environment with experienced facilitators who guide children in developing both soft and hard skills.

  • Small group sizes that ensure each child receives personal attention and can build meaningful relationships with peers and facilitators.

  • The opportunity to improve key life skills such as confidence, teamwork, social interaction, and leadership.

  • A unique opportunity to connect with animals and nature, offering real-world experiences that promote emotional intelligence and responsibility.

Whether your child joins us for a single day or multiple days, they’ll leave with new skills, friendships, and memories that will last.

💬 What Parents Are Saying

“I couldn’t believe how much confidence my daughter gained in just one day. She came home calm, happy, and full of stories about her time with the horses. It’s rare to see her so grounded after an activity — it clearly made a big impression. She’s already asking when she can go again!”

— Jenny*, parent of a 9-year-old

“This was such a special experience for my son. Being around the horses brought out a sense of calm and joy in him that we don’t often see in busy holiday clubs. He felt safe, seen, and came home with a huge smile on his face. He absolutely loved it.”

— Dave*, parent of a 10-year-old
