This is an enjoyable session for young children (that are walking) with a combination of ‘baby rhyme time’ and ‘music
and movement’. Musical props are used to support children with the songs.
A fun and active music session where children can learn to follow simple instructions, take turns, make new friends
and improve their Physical Development skills.
A chance for you and your child/children to get messy in the kitchen! We provide a chance for the children to be able
to help prepare and cook food, whilst giving advice and information on different cooked meals and cooking ideas.
This group is designed for parent/carers and their babies. You can join in from pregnancy and also once your baby is
born. The group includes: stories, singing and play time, as well as engaging in sensory lights and music. This is a great
way to meet new parents and socialise with your child.
This is a small group session that runs for 6 weeks both parent and child attend together and includes advice and
techniques to develop your child’s language development. If you have concerns with your child's speech please speak
to a member of staff.
We provide lots of courses for parents. Please look at our updated timetable for more information. All of the
courses provide a FREE crèche space for your child. Please book at reception.
