Children can walk on water in Stone this Easter holiday as part of Stafford Borough Council’s Get Out! programme.
By climbing inside a giant “hamster ball” youngsters can propel themselves across the surface of the pool at Alleyne’s Sports Centre in one of dozens of fun activities available during the Easter holiday break, which runs from Monday 11th to Friday 25th April.
Sessions last from five to seven minutes with the pool available for swimming for the rest of the time. Water Walkers will be available from 1.30pm to 2.30pm on Tuesdays, April 12th and 19th, with a charge of £5 per session plus 50p for a locker key. The activity is for over-eights and there is a weight limit of 15 stone. Advance booking on 01785 815715 is essential as places are limited.
Free swimming is also available for youngsters at Alleyne’s throughout the holiday, with sessions available from 10am to 11am, and 11am to 12pm, on Monday to Friday.
Athletics, football, dance mats, tennis and skateboarding at a mobile skate park are among many other activities being organised by the Borough Council’s Sports Development Team during the holiday. More information is available in the council’s Get Out brochure.
