We encourage parents and carers of children who are eligible for benefits-related free school meals to book their child&#8217;s place as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Details of activities can be found on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/education-and-families\/haf-providers-map\/\">interactive map\u00a0on our website<\/a>.\u00a0If your child is\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/educationandfamilies\/family-support\/haf-programme\/information-for-parents\/\">eligible to access the programme<\/a>, simply search for a provider in your area, have a look at their listing to see what they\u2019re offering, then when you\u2019re ready, book a place with them directly using your unique HAF code.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/news\/get-ready-for-a-summer-of-funded-exciting-activities-and-enriching-experiences\/\">Get ready for a summer of funded exciting activities and enriching experiences!\u00a0 &#8211; News (devon.gov.uk)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-13427\" src=\"http:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2022\/12\/HAF-logo-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"HAF logo\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2022\/12\/HAF-logo-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2022\/12\/HAF-logo.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-16366 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2024\/07\/image-3-424x600.png\" alt=\"HAF poster\" width=\"424\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2024\/07\/image-3-424x600.png 424w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2024\/07\/image-3-212x300.png 212w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2024\/07\/image-3-768x1086.png 768w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2024\/07\/image-3-1086x1536.png 1086w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/96\/2024\/07\/image-3.png 1414w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 424px) 100vw, 424px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the summer holidays fast approaching, we\u2019re pleased to announce that bookings are now open for our action-packed Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme!\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":649,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16365","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news-and-updates"],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-26 12:46:57","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16365","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/649"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16365"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16365\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16367,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16365\/revisions\/16367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16365"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16365"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/eycs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16365"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
