A brief history of Transformers

Over 20 years ago the Scripture Union Computing and Electronics holiday started up in deepest Norfolk. Having run for many years, the holiday became so successful and popular that it outgrew its site and moved to Abbots Hill School in Hertfordshire.

After further growth we were having to turn many people away and so we decided to split the holiday into two new ones, Transformers and Live Wires .

In 2003 both holidays moved south to Ovingdean Hall School where they have run for the past four years. In 2005 the dedicated catering team on Transformers, some of whom had served on the holiday for over 20 years, retired, and a new Head Cook and catering team took over. Thankfully, the long-standing tradition of having "pink stuff" for dessert at least once during the holiday continued!

2007 marks a first, in that the two holidays will be running on different sites. Transformers is moving to Aldro School in Surrey, a fantastic new site with an outdoor pool. Click here to take a look at the school's website.
