Half-Term Camps in Stratford
Looking for half-term camps in Stratford that combine high-quality gymnastics, meaningful movement, and a genuinely positive experience for children? Gymlab’s half-term gymnastics camps are designed for children aged 3 to 12, offering structured yet child-led days where confidence, physical skills, and enjoyment come first.
Following an exceptionally successful year of Half-Term Camps 2025, with strong repeat attendance and enthusiastic parent feedback, Gymlab is now preparing for Half-Term Camps 2026 at our Stratford venue. This page shares highlights from past camps, what families loved most, and everything you need to know about booking for the year ahead.
Gymlab delivered a full programme of half-term holiday camps in Stratford throughout 2025, welcoming children across multiple school breaks:
February half-term
Easter half-term
May half-term
Two weeks during the Summer holidays
Rather than following fixed themes, our gymnastics holiday camps focus on what matters most: high-quality movement, progressive skill development, and time for children to explore at their own pace. This approach allows every child, from first-time attendees to confident gymnasts, to feel comfortable, challenged, and supported.
From our perspective, the most meaningful indicator of success was the number of returners. Many children attended camp after camp across the year, and parents regularly told us that Gymlab was the only camp their child wanted to attend.
Looking Back at Half-Term Camps 2025
What Children and Parents Loved Most
Families consistently highlighted three areas that made Gymlab stand out from other half-term camps in East London.
Gymnastics as the Daily Highlight
The gymnastics sessions were repeatedly described as the highlight of each day. Children enjoyed learning new skills, revisiting familiar movements, and gaining confidence without pressure. This mirrors the philosophy across our weekly gymnastics classes and wider programmes, which you can explore further in our article on how Gymlab helps children build confidence and life skills through movement.
Parents often commented on the quality and variety of equipment, including airtracks, monkey bars, and soft play areas. The physical environment plays a key role in how children engage, something we regularly discuss across our wider Gymlab updates and venue improvements.
High-Quality Equipment and Setting
Water Games During Summer Camps
During the Summer camps, water games became a firm favourite. These sessions added variety to the day, supported social play, and gave children a fun way to cool down while staying active.
Parent Feedback From Half-Term Camps 2025
One of the strongest indicators of quality across our Half-Term Camps 2025 was the volume and consistency of positive parent feedback. Many families returned for multiple camps across the year, and a significant number told us that Gymlab had become the only half-term camp in Stratford their child wanted to attend.
Parents frequently highlighted not just the activities themselves, but the wider experience, including the warmth of the team, the calm and supportive environment, and the clear focus on children’s emotional and physical development. For many families, this reassurance and trust mattered just as much as the gymnastics camps themselves.
We are proud to share genuine parent feedback using first names only, reflecting real experiences from families who attended our half-term gymnastics camps:
“I have brought lots of other families to GymLab as I think it’s a really positive, active place for kids, particularly young girls.”
Catarina
“She tried other holiday clubs, but Gymlab is by far her favourite. Teachers and managers are very friendly and competent. We are always received with a warm smile.”
Isla
“Your contribution to our son’s development is priceless, and we will be forever grateful. We will continue with the camps at every opportunity.”
Roxana
“The thing that sets Gymlab apart from other after-school activities is Francesca and Massimo’s approach to education, and their focus on children’s inner and physical strength, maintaining a positive and empowering attitude.”
