Spring Term 2012
Sidings Community Centre offers activities and facilities for 52
weeks of the year. However, many of our classes, children’s & young
people’s activities operate within a school term-times. Accordingly,
we update our programme on a “termly” basis for Spring,
Summer and Winter each year. Our
Spring Term 2012 programme starts on
Friday 30th March 2012.. Some activities
and classes start later than the usual expected start date so check dates and
times on the programme below or on the appropriate activity page.
Half Term Dates:
Monday 13 th to Friday 17th February 2012
(There will be a break during half-term week for classes, but we
will be operating holiday provision for children- evening and weekend
timetable according to schedule)
The term will end on
Friday 30th March 2012.
You can download and print a PDF version of the programme using Adobe Acrobat. |
