Animation team worker
The entertainment team prepares, leads and supervises fun, artistic and sporting activities throughout the week, to the delight of holidaymakers!

Although most of the activities are aimed at 6-12 year-olds, the activities team can cater for a range of groups, from children under 6 (accompanied by their parents) to adults (accompanied by their children).
