Dear Stay and Play visitors,
We have made the difficult decision to postpone our forthcoming Stay and Play sessions until after the Easter holidays.
The safeguarding of all children and adults is our main priority and in light of the uncertainty over the Covid-19 virus, we feel that making the decision now is the most sensible one to take.
We understand how disappointing this is to the many families who attend our Stay and Play sessions to play with their child and meet with other parents. We look forward to welcoming you back to Ghyll Royd once our sessions resume after Easter.
Keep an eye on our Facebook page and website to see when sessions resume. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Join our Little Notes, Art Splash and Gym4Tots ‘Stay and Play’ sessions on Friday mornings from 9.30am to 11.00am (term time only). For children aged 18 months to 4 years. Refreshments included.
Stay and Play costs £2.00 per family for entry and there will be additional costs for the Music and Gym sessions. The costs cover specialist teaching, materials and resources which is then fed back into the quality of our Stay and Play sessions.
Little Notes Music Session 9.35am to 10.00am / 10.00am to 10.25am (Recommended 18 months – 3 years)
Run by our specialist Music teacher, this 30 minute session will provide a range of rhymes and songs for children. The session provides an environment that is both stimulating and nurturing for toddlers. Early experiences with music and movement give your toddler an early learning advantage. Music, specifically singing songs and speaking rhymes and chants, improves language development.
£2.00 per child, £1.00 per sibling
Art Splash 9.30am to 10.30am
