The Blues Holiday Clubs – Summer Fun 2011

In Easter 2011, Southend United Community & Educational Trust launched a brand new holiday provision – ‘The Blues Holiday Clubs’.

We wanted to create an environment that was fun, safe and secure whilst ensuring that every child had the opportunity to engage in a club that was just right for them. This environment can now be found at our ‘Blues Holiday Clubs’ at a cost low enough to ensure value for money - just £10 per day!
