Fun, Active, and Unforgettable Holiday Adventures across Cornwall.
Holiday Fun Done Right
At Elemental, working with children is what we do best, and we do it all year round. Our Summer Kids Club is a natural extension of the high-quality, high-energy programmes we deliver to thousands of young people every season.

Kids Club: Common Questions
What are the session times, and how does drop-off work?
Morning sessions run from 9:00am – 12:30pm, and afternoons from 1:15pm – 4:45pm. Our team will be ready on arrival to welcome your child and get them settled in quickly, so drop-off is simple and stress-free. Clear pick-up times help ensure a smooth end to the day.
Do you provide lunch?
Lunch is not included, so children will need to bring a packed lunch, snacks, and a refillable water bottle. We build in time for breaks so they can refuel properly and stay energised throughout the session.
Does my child need to be a strong swimmer?
No — your child doesn’t need to be a strong swimmer, but they should feel comfortable in the water. Our experienced instructors work with all ability levels and focus on building confidence safely, step by step.
What happens if the weather or surf conditions aren’t ideal?
Your child’s safety is always our priority. If conditions aren’t suitable for water activities, we’ll switch to fun, structured beach or land-based sessions. The day still runs, stays active, and remains just as engaging.
How do you keep children safe in the water?
We operate with strict instructor ratios, typically 1:8 in the water, and often lower depending on conditions or ability. All sessions are led by qualified, experienced instructors, ensuring every child gets the attention and support they need.
Is my child in safe hands? (Why parents trust us)
Yes, and that’s the foundation of everything we do. From first-time surfers to more confident kids, we create an environment where children feel supported and safe:
- We work with 4,000+ children every year across our surf school and activity programmes
- We deliver programmes in partnership with Cornwall Council (Time2Move)
- Sessions are run by qualified instructors specialising in working with children
- We follow a clear structure built around safety, fun, and confidence-building
- We regularly deliver for school groups and youth programmes
