Cllr Carl Sherwood, of Brigg, cabinet member for Health and Wellbeing, said: “Parents are often looking for activities to keep their children entertained during half term that don’t involve their games consoles or mobile phones. These all day sessions are perfect for keeping kids active and engaged in some of their favourite games and sports.”
