STAY AND PLAY
Noah's Ark is our Stay and Play for any preschool children, right from newborn. We run a session every Thursday. Booking is required for each session. Please see below for more details.
Noah’s Ark is our “Stay and Play” for any pre-school children (right from newborn), and their parents or carers.
We are now running 1 session every Thursday, 10.30am - 12.00pm. Please note that the sessions do not run during school holidays.
​
Booking is required for each session and spaces are limited. You will only be able to book one week in advance of the session. Every child must be accompanied by an adult and we ask that there is at least 1 adult for every 3 children booked in.
​
WHAT HAPPENS
​
The children play with our huge choices of toys and activities for the first part. There is also a chance for them to do a craft, which is different each week.
Parents are free to chat to one another while supervising their children and we also have a team of dedicated volunteers who are there to assist.
For the last half an hour everyone comes together to sing some songs, to hear a story and to enjoy some refreshments.
​
COST
​
There is no charge for Noah's Ark, but we do suggest a donation of about £1.50 per child. This helps us to cover the costs of refreshments and craft activities. Any profits are ploughed back into Noah's Ark for the purchase of new toys etc.
​
Although there is no charge, you do need to book a space. Bookings are available by clicking on the relevant link below, 7 days before the session.
​
PLEASE NOTE: We have decided to run Noah's Ark in the morning only for the time being. This is due to volunteer commitments, lower numbers and other additional pressures. Please note that this may mean there is greater demand for the morning session. We recommend booking early to avoid disappointment (you can book from 12noon the week before)
