Barnet's October Half Term Programme
With October Half Term fast approaching (Monday, 27th October - Friday, 31st October), it’s time to start thinking about fun things to do.
At Better, we have a wide range of activities available at all five of our leisure centres in Barnet to keep kids active and healthy during the Half Term. It’s the perfect place for children to try something new, be active, make new friends and have a lot of fun.
See below a list of activities available week commencing Monday 27th October.
Being active is easy, fun and social. It can lift a young person's mood, keep their heart healthy, and give them an opportunity to meet new friends. Through the FREE Fit and Active Barnet (FAB) card, juniors can have access to a range of physical activity opportunities, including 50% off leisure-based activities and FREE swimming for under 8s (Mon – Fri).
