Children & Family

Toddlers

The children have access to our two halls, one with toys for those on their feet and the other a protected space for babies and quieter activities (puzzles, books). We also have another room where there is something crafty to do – sticking, drawing, painting, playdoh…… We sometimes have Story Time and always finish with Singing Time.
