October half term is just around the corner! While it’s a welcome break from school routines, it can be a challenge to find engaging, safe, and fun activities to keep your children entertained while you’re at work. That’s where Barracudas Activity Day Camps come in – a fantastic solution for childcare that your kids will absolutely love.
And here’s the best part for our Care Professional Academy community… as a Tier 1 Care Professional or above, you have access to an exclusive discount to make this brilliant childcare option even more affordable for your family.
Why your kids will love Barracudas this October…
Barracudas isn’t just childcare, it’s an adventure. Their mission is to give every child an amazing experience they can’t wait to come back to, and they deliver on that promise. Here’s what makes their October camps so special:

1. Incredible variety of activities
Gone are the days of bored children. Barracudas offer a huge range of activities designed to suit all interests. From sports like archery, fencing, and team games to creative arts and crafts, drama, and even go-karting (at selected camps), there’s something to spark every child’s imagination and burn off that endless energy!

2. Themed fun for the spooky season
October half term means Halloween! You can expect spooky (but not too scary!) crafts, themed games, and lots of festive fun that makes this break extra special.

3. A safe and secure environment
As Care Professionals, we know the importance of safety above all else. Barracudas is Ofsted registered, and their staff are highly trained, first-aid qualified, and passionate about providing a secure environment where children can thrive. You can have complete peace of mind while you’re caring for others.

4. Friendships and confidence building
