Little Saints’ Parent and Toddler Group have provided an outreach service to the local community for the past thirteen years.
It is a much needed and appreciated service for parents/carers and their pre-school children. We welcome families from the city and rural areas and our Members are of mixed denomination and race.
We opened again in September 2023 after the summer break.
A risk assessment in compliance with the Church of Ireland Safeguarding policy, and all cleaning and sanitising requirements were carried out before opening.
The average attendance for the past year was around 30/40 children and their carers. The usual play activities were enjoyed by the children which includes a home corner, book corner table toys and physical equipment, plus a well equipped baby area.
Parties were organised for Christmas and Easter and the children enjoyed a visit from Santa and the Easter Bunny.
At the end of June the children enjoyed a session at the Play shed.
We would like to thank our ten volunteers who attend every Tuesday to cater for the needs of the Group, we really appreciate their dedication and commitment.
