Looking for something to do this half term? We’re pleased to be running a relaxed programme of activities for children and families, with plenty of chances to get creative, play, and spend time together.
Alongside our regular half-term sessions, we’re also hosting special events with the University of Chichester Conservatoire later in the week, offering opportunities to enjoy live music and workshops in the Chapel.
Half Term Fun at the Chapel
Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | 12-2pm
Join us in the Chapel across the first half of the week for some simple, welcoming activities that children can dip in and out of:
Monday: Makers Craft Session
Get hands-on with our makers session, using craft materials to create and explore. A great opportunity for children to use their imagination and take something home they’ve made themselves.
Tuesday: Creative Colouring
A calm and creative session with colouring sheets and materials available. Perfect for children who enjoy drawing, colouring, or just sitting and chatting while they create.
Wednesday: Lego Table
Our Lego table will be out for free play and building. Whether it’s towers, houses, or something completely unique, this session is all about creativity and fun.
Community Coffee Morning – Kids Welcome
Thursday | 10:30am–12pm | Community Hall
Our regular community coffee morning is still going ahead on Thursday, and families are very welcome. We’ll be getting the toys out so children can play while adults enjoy a coffee and a chat. No structured activities, just a friendly, relaxed space for everyone.
