Dates to be announced at a later date

As we all know the summer holidays can be long, so it’s good to be able to break it up with activities that enhance the enjoyment of the season.

The Ballydehob Community Playgroup Summer Camps were hugely successful in 2011. We have a fabulous setting with the sports field, indoor sports hall, outdoor play, tennis and basketball courts. Last year the children all had a ball and were more than a little exhausted at the end of each day.

Here is last years schedule, as soon as we organise ourselves we will update the camps and dates, but for now you can get a taste for what kind of camps we run.
