Welcome to Holiday Squads!

May Half Term Fun

for 5-13 Year Olds

At BHVA, we don't just entertain - we create!

Our Holiday Squads are fun, full-day sessions where children aged 5-13 can explore drama, dance, art, and stop-frame animation in a safe, welcoming space.

Led by our friendly team of creative coaches, each session gives young people the chance to express themselves, build confidence, and try something new - no experience needed. Every child is supported as an individual and encouraged to share their voice, their way,

We believe creativity is for everyone. That's why our Holiday Squads are designed to feel less like childcare and more like an adventure.

Your Journey, Your Story

Unlock the mystery this May!

Step into the world of secret messages, curious characters, and puzzling clues as your child becomes the detective in their own interactive mystery adventure, inspired by Cluedo.

Each day builds the suspense, introduces new characters, and reveals vital clues.

Join us for a week of immersive storytelling, creative collaboration, and big detective energy!

Pick individual days or book all three - it's up to you.

Childcare vouchers accepted.

Tuesday - Thursday | 9am-3pm | Ages 5-13

Location: BHVA Studios, The Yards, Kettering

Who Dun It?

  • Who dropped the torn glove?

  • What does the lipstick-stained teacup mean?

  • And why is Barry acting so strange?

Across three exciting days, your child will piece together the clues through drama, art, and stop animation - solving a mystery one creative step at a time.

The Creative Line-Up

Tuesday - Drama | The Crime Scene is Set

Meet the suspects, invent your character, and act out the mystery's dramatic beginning. A dinner party has taken a dark twist... who saw what? And who is hiding something?

Wednesday - Art | Suspect Sketches and Evidence Cards

Draw the suspects. Design the evidence. Create detective kits and clue cards to bring the case to life. What does the painted key unlock?

Thursday - Stop Frame Animation | Newsroom: The Final Reveal

Lights, camera, mystery!

Film your own breaking news report and solve the case once and for all. Was it the butler in the ballroom? Or someone else entirely?
