Hello peeps
Due to the local primary school training day Monday Monkeys Playgroup shall be closed on Monday 6th November.
The playgroups shall be back on Monday 13th November 🍁🍂🍁🖌️👶👧👨‍👧👨‍👩‍👧👩‍👦

It’s chilly in a morning and wet …. Why not come along to the spofforth village hall and have a coffee and meet new friends …. Here at the spofforth village hall we provide a traditional playgroup where the children play and you get to chat with mums,dads, nannies and carers … all ages welcome £3.50 includes a scrumptious snacks/juice and hot drink for the adults … all welcome x🙊x ♥️x

We are back open on Monday 11th September 9.30 - 11.30

Too much rain we are heading back to the hall this morning!!!

Just a reminder that we are at the cricket club tomorrow at the later time of 10am. Look forward to seeing you there

It’s our last session on Monday before the summer break. We have decided to change venue for the morning and will be at the Cricket Club to enjoy some outside space and will run from 10-12pm. Please feel free to bring a picnic and we will provide the usual drinks but instead of snack we will have ice cream treats!

Just a reminder that Monday Monkeys is closed today and back next week for some Father’s Day craft!

We enjoyed exploring shapes with our potato printing today! We are now having a 2 week break for the school holidays and will be back open on 12th June - hope to see you then!

Thanks to everyone who has made some beautiful rainbows and coronation hand prints for our display board!

The bad news: tomorrow isn’t a bank holiday. The good news: Monday Monkeys will be on 9:30-11:30 with some rainbow themed craft, toys, snack, coffee and biscuits!

You’re welcome to join us at the Coronation disco tomorrow night, tickets available on the door. Under 11s only.

Good luck to anyone finding out their school places today! And just a reminder that there is no playgroup today and we will be back next Monday!

Love this idea, we all need that village!

Grab a ribbon and share the square! The ribbon says: - I am open to you offering me some kind words or support - I’m here if you need some kind words or support It’s also for those who’ve messaged me to say that they’ve been offered support before, but said they were ‘fine thanks’ when they weren’t. So it might a statement to yourself that you’re stepping out in letting others step towards you! This will either rocket, or flop, and I’m okay with finding out and looking like a plonker if it doesn’t work. If you want something a bit more official, thanks to lots of you, I have discovered that @amotherplace and @stacieswift created some amazing ‘Yo’ buggy tags and pins a couple of years ago which you can get on @amotherplace website. They that you’re open to having a chat or helping a fellow parent. I will link those in stories for you! All proceeds go to Pandas. So let’s see ribbons and tags all over the place 🙌🏼

We had a lovely time at our last session before Easter. We aren’t back until Monday 24th April. Hope you all have a fantastic Easter! 🐣 🐑

Join us tomorrow for our last session before Easter to make a sweet treat, have a play and sing some songs!

We had a lovely morning celebrating the start of spring painting flowers with forks, building gardens and playing with playdoh. Next week is our last session before the Easter break so join us for some egg related fun!!

No plans for the weekend .. it’s not too late join us for a night of casino fun, try your hand at black Jack, Roulette or Poker, Pie and Peas, a few drinks or all of the above, you could even grab a bargain in the silent auction ( 4 men or 4 ladies for the day up for grab amongst lots more) all to raise funds for the children of Spofforth.. tickets available at Londis 🍺🥂♥️♣️♠️♦️

Any one up for a fun night out? Casino night in the village is set to be a very fun night and the monkeys team can’t wait and would love to have some of your join us!

Samaritans have rebranded ”Blue Monday” (19th Jan) as “Brew Monday” to raise awareness for those who may be finding things abit tough and encouraging us all to reach out. And let’s face it anyone caring for a small person can always benefit from a hot cuppa and a chat! So come along on Monday for some small world coffee shop play, craft and a hot drink! (N.b. We aren’t raising money for Samaritans on the day simply raising awareness and encouraging anyone who has maybe been nervous of coming to join us for a brew)

We are back tomorrow morning 9:30-11:30 for playing, craft and coffee!

What a lovely Christmas party … activities food and Father Christmas ! What else do you need other than smiles glitter and party food … Happy Christmas Little Monkeys and see you on the 9th January 👌🏻💯🌲

The big man is visiting Spofforth on Sunday 4th December! The grotto will be open 3-5pm for £3 a visit. If you live in the village then why not have a display and make sure the big man knows where to come on Christmas Day 😉

Morning Monkeys!! We are back this morning at Spofforth Village Hall 9:30-11:30 for playing, snacks and singing! Looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting new monkeys!

We are spring cleaning before our first session back to make sure everything is germ free with some little helpers!

Just a reminder that Monday Monkeys starts back next Monday 12th Sept as our big kids are still off school today!

Thankyou to everyone who came to our last session this morning before the summer break, we managed to stay pretty cool!! Thought I would just post to say that I know the summer holidays can be long and hard to fill!! So if anyone is heading to a local park for a play and wants to put it on the group to see if anyone fancies it then feel free! Have a lovely summer everyone and see you on the 12th September!

The hall is lovely and cool and we will be getting the ice out soon!

We are still planning on going ahead tomorrow and will keep things as cool as possible! We will update on here if the hall is too hot in the morning but hopefully it will be a nice sanctuary from the blazing weather!

With the temperatures hotting up even more next week, come and cool down with us for a couple of hours on Monday. Our final session before the summer will be all about ice! We’ll have some ice painting and toys that need rescuing from the ice!

Join us on Monday for a play themed around the seaside! They’ll be craft, sensory play, songs, snack and toys! 9:30-11:30 Spofforth Village Hall
