Our “Holiday Fun Club” has now been running just over 2 years is now a very popular holiday time activity for many local families. We do many activities outside trying to utilise the fantastic environment that we have here but as you know we also spend time in the hall itself. At the last club we talked with the children about some of the new resources, games etc. that they would like to have at their club and we had some great ideas eg: marble run, kinetics, scalextric, science kits, magic sets, jump rockets, robots ,action figures, transformers, giant balls, large football goals, metal detectors, walkie talkies, a new bigger bouncy castle! all fantastic suggestions! 

We do try and keep holiday club session fees as low as we can and therefore have a very limited budget so buying some of these amazing ideas is a challenge.

Our wonderful team have put their heads together and have decided that they would like to hold a fundraising event in order to purchase some of these resources for the fun club

So the week beginning the 1st June will be our “Staff challenge week” The girls will be giving up their days off with no pay to take part in this challenge week.

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday –Michelle, Libbie, Emma, Kate and myself will be cycling (on an exercise bike on the stage) to Disneyland Paris ,492 miles in total. We will be taking turns doing half our stints on the bike starting at 8 am and finishing at 3:30pm, the goal is to do 20.5 miles an hour, 164 miles in the day ………………………that’s the plan anyway.It’s going to be a tough challenge so we really hope that you will support us to spur us on.

On the Thursday Julie will be sitting in a bath of baked beans for the entire nursery day, starting at 8:30am and finishing at 3:30pm, she will be allowed toilet breaks only !!! 

And finally on the Friday we are going to hold a Disney party day for all the children, we will be wearing masks of Disney characters, having a disco and at 3pm we will be finishing the day off with a wet sponge throwing competition where the children and parents can take turns throwing wet sponges at the nursery staff, there will be a £2 donation for the day’s activities.

Please help to push us through our challenge week by donating a small amount.All money raised will go towards purchasing some of the reoucres the children have suggested for thier Fun Club.
