What Is THRIVE?
THRIVE is designed specifically for children and young people. It focuses on fun, engaging activity that helps build strength, resilience and confidence.
For parents, it means a positive after school outlet, a structured way to keep children active and a supportive environment within your local leisure centre. For children, it means fun, movement and feeling part of something.
Why Half Term Is the Perfect Time to Join
Half term is not just about filling a week. It is the perfect opportunity to build a routine that lasts all year.
When you join Horizon Leisure Centre during half term, your child can:
- Take part in structured THRIVE activities
- Stay active in a safe, family-friendly environment
- Build confidence and make new friends
- Continue attending after school sessions throughout term time
Instead of scrambling for one-off holiday activities, you are creating something consistent.
Regular activity plays a powerful role in a child’s development. It supports physical growth, builds mental resilience, and helps children develop confidence through movement and achievement. Just as importantly, it encourages healthy habits from a young age and creates meaningful family time away from screens.

Family Memberships: Something for Everyone
Horizon Leisure Centre is built around families.
With a Family membership, parents and children can enjoy:
- Family swim sessions
- Gym access
- A welcoming local environment in Havant and Waterlooville
You can train while your children attend activities, or enjoy time together in the pool. It becomes part of your weekly routine, not just a half term solution.
The Financial Benefit
We know that joining fees can sometimes be the thing that makes parents hesitate. When you are already paying for clubs, uniforms, childcare and everything else that comes with family life, an upfront cost can feel like one more hurdle.
By removing the joining fee this half term, Horizon Leisure Centre is making it easier for local families to get started without that extra pressure. You save on the upfront cost, avoid paying anything additional on top of your first month, and can spread the membership through a simple monthly payment instead.
It is a straightforward way to make something positive more affordable, especially at a time when many households are balancing rising everyday costs.
