Sunshine, smiles, and seriously enriching screen-free fun this May half term and summer holiday, The Strings Club is striking the perfect chord for families seeking more than just childcare. Founded by musician and mum Amy Cunningham, these award-winning, Ofsted-registered holiday camps combine a bespoke, expertly designed curriculum with the
joy of music, creativity and play to help children truly thrive.
Each day is carefully curated by an in-house Activities Manager (a qualified primary teacher) to build confidence, spark imagination and support wellbeing. Mornings come alive with hands-on guitar, violin or ukulele sessions led by professional musicians, while afternoons explore themed workshops in drama, dance, wellbeing, sport and art. It’s an immersive experience where friendships flourish, and self-expression shines.
By the end of the week, children take centre stage in a joyful Grand Concert – celebrating not just what they’ve learned, but the confidence they’ve gained and friendships they’ve formed. With small group sizes, high staff-to-child ratios and free instrument hire for multi-day bookings, parents can feel confident their children are in safe, nurturing hands.
