Last term, we were thrilled to launch our new playgroup at All Saints’ and it has already been a fantastic success! Families from across the community have joined us, creating a warm and welcoming space where children can play, learn and make new friends while parents and grandparents connect and share experiences.

The first three sessions were a real highlight. Our Fireworks-themed session was full of colour and creativity, with children enjoying vibrant crafts and sensory play. The Messy Play morning was a joyful opportunity for little ones to explore textures and express themselves freely. Finally, our Christmas celebration was truly magical, bringing families together for festive crafts, songs and a special visit to see Santa in his grotto.

The playgroup is open to all families, regardless of faith or geographical location and offers fun, themed activities designed to encourage creativity and social interaction. They are led by our experienced Early Years team. We are delighted to announce our upcoming sessions:

• Valentine’s Day – Thursday 12^th February, 9.15 – 10.15
• World Book Day – Tuesday 3^rd March, 9.15 – 10.15
• Easter – Tuesday 24^th March, 9.15 – 10.15

To make the sessions even more enjoyable, there are hot drinks available for adults and snacks for the children so everyone can relax for an hour. It has been wonderful to see the positive impact of these sessions so far and the feedback we’ve received has been glowing. There’s nothing to pay and no need to prebook. We look forward to welcoming you and your little ones in the new year!
