PLAYTEAM JUNE '08

We have been fortunate to have had the Kent Playteam at Bright Sparks, they helped parents and children alike. Last week the Playteam helped parents make playdough and paint and the children had a great time playing with these and then made fish.
This week the children enjoyed waterplay, bath gelee, bubbles and made birds using a simple paper plate feathers, sequins and paint.
Parents and children alike had loads of fun.

June 2008

For the next two tuesday we will welcome Kent's playteam, this week they are running a parents workshop and will help us to make our own playdough and paint. Next week we will use these new skills to make a mess, sorry art with the children.

Also this week we are raising funds for our Annual Appeal by having a sponsored 'assault course' and bounce, the children will do a circuit of the hall by going through tunnels, over a slide etc. and bouncing.

We are pleased to announce our community fun event at the end of April. There will be a whole host of activities. This is started at 10.30am by our annual SPRING FESTIVAL, so bring with you some seeds and stuff for our community garden.....further information will follow.

We love to see every family in the area attend, especially all those who attend Bright Sparks,
