SIC SUMMER ACTIVITIES 2021

Shetland Islands Council Sport & Leisure Service are delivering a range of summer activities and working with a number of clubs to promote physical activity opportunities. In this leaflet you will find the activities listed along with any information you may need. SOME IMPORTANT INFORMATION AGES Where a school year age is specified for activities, this applies to the school year that your child has just completed.

BOOKING Unless specified otherwise, all activities can be booked by calling Islesburgh Community Centre during open hours (01595 745100) or emailing islesburgh.reception@.gov.uk You will be required to complete and return a consent form for all activities (except Picnic and Play in the Park).

COVID GUIDANCE Please adhere to the following guidance when dropping your child at any of our activities: Please ensure your child uses hand sanitiser at the entrance. Please drop off and collect your child at the entrance to any indoor activity venues. Exceptions to this can be made if your child has Additional Support Needs. In this instance, please use the available sanitiser and wear a face covering. Please drop off and collect your child within 5 minutes of the start and end times for activities. When you are in attendance or dropping off/collecting your child, please maintain a 2 metre distance from members of other households.

COST ALL activities in our booklet are FREE this year! We are grateful to the Scottish Government and Sportscotland for 'Get Into Summer' funding which has enabled us to expand activities and offer them at no cost.

CANCELLATION If you wish to cancel a child's place please let us know as soon as possible by contacting Islesburgh Reception on 01595 745100. Capacity for activities is limited, and this will enable us to offer the place to another child if there is a waiting list. PICNIC & PLAY IN THE PARK A variety of sports and games for all the family.
