This Year's Stories

🐻 We're Going on a Bear Hunt (3rd & 5th August)

Embark on an exciting adventure with obstacle courses, sensory trails, teddy bear activities, crafts, music and storytelling and be encouraged to keep going, especially when you face the difficulties life will throw at you.

🐠 The Rainbow Fish (10th & 12th August)

🐇 Guess How Much I Love You (17th & 18th August)
