🔅 Due to the current weather conditions, we have made the decision to keep the Centre closed on Thursday 25 June and Friday 26 June. Unfortunately, the high temperatures mean we cannot safely welcome families and young children during these sessions.
The forecast looks cooler next week, and we look forward to seeing you back at the Centre for our usual sessions from Monday.
📣 Please note that Saturday Club will not be running from the Centre this week. Instead, our team will be at the Fun in the Park event with a stall. Be sure to stop by and say hello while you're enjoying the many free activities on offer! ... See MoreSee Less
There will be no Saturday Club at the Centre this Saturday 27th June.
