We’re looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow morning. We have a couple of requests for parents…

🚽 🚻 When your child goes to the toilet, please can you accompany them. We had to get the plumbers in this week to clear a blockage of LOTS of toilet paper that had been flushed down.

🍌 🍇 🧃 Please supervise your children at snack time to ensure they are sitting at the red tables and not wandering around with food as this causes a lot of mess and choking hazards.

🧸 🎶 Please can everyone help at tidy up time so that I can get on with nursery rhyme time.

Thank you! I’m finding it quite difficult running playgroup on my own so any additional help with these things is really appreciated xx

It was lovely to see so many people at playgroup this week, including some new families. Sorry if we didn’t manage to get round to have a chat with everyone, it was very busy and sometimes it’s not possible to sit down for long. We hope to see you all again next week!

Would anybody like either of our toy kitchens? We have been given a new set for the new year so we need rid of these. Available to collect on Saturday morning between 9.30 and 12.

What a brilliant Glow Party we have had today to finish our playgroup sessions for the year! Many thanks to GW Sports for coming and organising our party - we had 30 very happy and excited small people! We would recommend Gav to everyone for their party needs, the children loved all of the sensory resources and got a lot out of the session!
