Families across Colchester are invited to “Splash into Easter” and “Bike into Easter” at Leisure World and Colchester Sports Park this April. Whether you’re looking for active adventures, family fun, or ways to keep the children entertained during the school holidays, our venues have something for everyone.
Leisure World offers the perfect way to get the whole family active and one way is swimming. Choose from the Leisure Pool with waves, flumes, and interactive water features or the fitness pool to get family fit! Swimming offers a fun, low‑impact way for children and families to stay active while improving strength, coordination, and cardiovascular health. Anytime spent in the water promotes important water‑safety awareness and gradually builds water confidence, giving children valuable life skills in a playful, supportive environment.
For those who prefer to keep their adventures on dry land, Colchester Sports Park invites families to explore its state-of-the-art cycling facilities, including: a 1-mile closed-road cycle track, Pump track and free learn to ride area and bike and equipment hire. Friendly, on-site team members are on hand to support riders of all abilities. It’s the perfect destination to get outdoors, experience something new, and enjoy active fun in the spring sunshine.
Parents looking for a little Easter calm can head to Aqua Springs for spa sessions, warm hydrotherapy pools, saunas, and steam rooms, ideal for unwinding after all the family fun!
Cllr Martin Goss, Portfolio Holder for Waste, Neighbourhoods and Leisure at Colchester City Council said: “Easter is one of our favourite times of year because we get to welcome families looking to have fun, stay active and make memories together. Whether you’re splashing in the leisure pool, cycling outdoors at the Sports Park, or taking a moment to relax at Aqua Springs, there really is something for everyone. We’re excited to help our community enjoy an unforgettable holiday.”
With so much on offer across Colchester’s leisure facilities there are plenty of opportunities to make special memories.
