Playgroup News

It’s been wonderful to see so many families coming along to playgroup — our sessions are full of happy chatter, laughter, and creative play.

This fortnight, the children have been busy exploring cotton sand, discovering its soft texture and how it can be shaped and moulded. Our Duplo and dolls have also been very popular — it’s lovely to see the children sharing, building, and engaging in imaginative play together.

We’ve introduced new paints at the easel, and the children have loved using the new colours. Our play kitchen has been bustling too, with lots of “cooking,” serving, and pretend family meals!

We love watching friendships grow and confidence blossom each week. I do love to see the adults bond with other parents too. It was also lovely to see some old faces join us at playgroup again today. Thank you to all our families for helping to make playgroup such a welcoming, caring space.
