Redcatch Toddler Group

So, in light of the previous post - we thought we'd set up a group to stay in touch!
If you need a virtual hug, or want to 'meet' someone online for coffee or a playdate, or anything else that might help, please feel free to post: https://www.facebook.com/groups/145594260 062377/

**Playgroup cancelled until further notice**
Sadly, due to today's updated Government advice, we have made the difficult decision to postpone all playgroup sessions until further notice.
We understand that playgroup is a hugely important part of people's lives, so haven't taken the decision lightly - but in the long term it's more important that we do our bit to limit the spread of Covid-19, to protect those in our community who are most vulnerable.
... We hope to see you all again soon and wish you and your loved ones all the best at this difficult time.

We're back again this week, 10am on Tuesday (and don't forget, it's pancake day! 🥞).
See you there 😊

We're fully booked for tomorrow's Christmas party, so unfortunately won't be able to take entries on the door.
It you'd like to make sure you're in with a shot of grabbing a last minute cancellation though please message us - we can't promise anything but if there's space we'll let you know!

We did some fun Christmas crafts at this week's session - thanks to the wonderful Annalise Ayre for making it happen!
There'll be more crafting at our Christmas party next week, along with mince pies & mulled wine (non-boozy!) for parents, party games and much more.
We're now fully booked so we're really sorry if you didn't manage to squeeze in.
... Normal sessions will resume 7th Jan - we really look forward to seeing you then!

Thank you SO much to everyone who brought in donations for the food bank - they were absolutely thrilled to receive our contribution!
No doubt this little bit of seasonal cheer will be very gratefully received.

Do you love our toddler group? 🥰🤗 If so, could you help us?
We're looking for 3 more volunteers to help out in the New Year!
... If you'd like to get involved please drop us a message or grab one of us for a chat next Tuesday x

🎅 Donations needed! 🎁
We'll be collecting for our local food bank at the next 2 sessions (26th November & 3rd December).
We'd be especially grateful for:... 🎄 Soap 🎄 Shampoo 🎄 Shower gel 🎄 Toothbrushes 🎄 Toothpaste
And if you can spare any little gifts for the children that would be wonderful 👐
Just bring them along to toddlers and we'll take care of passing them on.
Thank you so much! 👼

We had a fab time in the Community Garden this morning - thanks to everyone who came!
The kids really enjoyed the scavenger hunt and treasure hunt, as well as making leaf animals and having a great time in the play area.
Ooh and of course, there were singing, snacks and fabulous cake too!

Just a reminder that as long as the weather's up for it, we'll be meeting at Redcatch Community Garden rather than the hall tomorrow.
See you there at 10am for some outdoor fun!

We're back this Tuesday - but with a twist!
As long as the weather stays fine 🤞 you'll find us in Redcatch Community Garden, which is just inside the park.
Are you in? If you'd like to come, please put your name down in the comments ⤵️⤵️⤵️
... Bring your wellies and warm things... we've got some fun activities planned! There will be cake, snacks and warming drinks as usual.
If it does decide to pour ☔ we'll head back to the hall.
Hope to see you there!
