With all that outdoor space, invasion games such as Capture the Flag, 40-40 Homie and Activ Game are a huge favourite here. The wide playing fields also make it a great spot for archery!
Although there is no swimming pool, kids must have swimming kit here as Water Fight Mania is contagious whenever the sun comes out at Barn Elms Sports Trust.

Lost property is collected and placed on a table next to the sign-out desk every day. If you have lost an item, please ask a member of staff on camp to view our lost property.
If you are not returning to the site again, please call the site phone number found under ‘Camp Contact Details’ to check if your item has been found.
We ask that all lost property be collected from the site before the final Friday of the camp season.
Please note that this venue is largely an outdoor venue.
When it rains, we have a clubhouse in which we can shelter and continue some different indoor games. We’ll always look to get outside as much as possible, provided it’s safe to do so, so make sure you pack those raincoats!
Likewise, during hot weather packing sun hats and suncream are really important in helping to keep your children comfortable on camp.
