Hi all,
We will be meeting at the church in Hayes, Middlesex this Thursday to
socialise, have fun, and make stuff!
WE ARE NOW RUNNING AT THE LATER TIME OF 11:15 - 2:45!
We try to have a vague theme for each session, with information about
the theme (ie if it's a religious celebration details and stories etc),
food if it's appropriate, games and crafts either based on the theme or
traditionally associated with the theme. Quite often though the kids
aren't really interested - and that's fine by us because basically the
group is there to provide a safe and welcoming place to play and make /
meet friends, the 'education' part of home education is done either at
home or with family. The activities are there for a bit of structure if
we / the children need that, but we don't want them to get in the way of
the fun!
This time we are making strange structures - out of newspaper, spaghetti
and other stuff!
How high can you make a spaghetti tower? Can you make a bridge out of
newspaper? Can your paper tower hold up a wooden block - come and find
out :)
We are in the final preparation stage for our science club, hoping to
start next session. If you have expressed an interest for your children
* * * PLEASE BRING THE COST OF £2 PER CHILD THIS WEEK! * * *
This will cover ALL 15 sessions, and is very good value (or at least I
think so!)
The address is :
Hayes Elim Christian Centre
7 Keith road
Hayes
Middlesex
UB3 4HW
If it's your first visit, or you would like more information about us,
directions etc please feel free to get in touch. All are welcome, though
the current focus of the group is 10 and under (dictated by most of our
regular attendees being under 10, though we have a growing number of
slightly older kids now too!).
We meet from 11:15 until about 2:30 - 3 pm (the last half hour being a
tidy up whilst the kids still play sort of thing), and most families
have lunch at some point during the session. We have access to the
kitchen and a plentiful supply of tea, coffee, juice and biscuits.
Due to hall charges and cost of craft bits, we have a subscription
scheme - £20 for the next period - from the Start of March to the end of
May (it's a 3 month period) or £5 for irregular attendees if
that is preferable.
We have a wide variety of toys, including (but not limited to) :
Climbing frame
Slide
Lego
Duplo
Boxed and card games
Craft table
cars and road mat
dressing up clothes
play food and kitchens
Table football
See you there
