Play and Stay Toddler Group: Sunbeams!

The Play and Stay toddler group has been running since November 2009. It is for pre-school children, with a specific area for babies and an area with activities for toddlers.

Wednesday's 10.15-11.30am: St Andrew's Church (access via St Andrew's Road)

Suggested donation per family is £1.50.

The group starts at 10.15am. Toys are available for babies through to pre-schoolers including baby gyms, building bricks, pushchairs and ride-ons etc. There are also tables to enjoy modelling with playdoh and generally a different craft activity every week. Coffee, tea, children's drinks and biscuits are served from about 10.30am. 'Tidy-up time' is at around 11.15am and we finish off with some fun songs, ending at 11.30am.

Membership

We would be delighted if you would like to come along and join us for a session to see if you would like to register. If you would like to join Sunbeams, please fill in a registration form and send it to Irene Belcher (details on the form) or hand to it to one of the helpers during a Sunbeams session.

Venue

As many of you may know, Sunbeams started out two and half years ago in St Mark's church, moving to St Andrew's when renovation work started on St Mark's. This work, which includes a lovely new church hall, should be completed in the coming few months. It may be that this will provide a better environment for Sunbeams. We will keep you posted on developments.

Safety

We try to keep the environment as safe as possible, within common-sense boundaries. Please help us do this by keeping hot drinks out of reach of young children and making sure that exit doors are closed behind you to stop children slipping out un-noticed.

The group is run by Irene O'Malia (volunteer) and Sarah Stokes (SPA). Please contact Sarah via the Parish Office for more information.
