Extended Play Day: Thursday 21st June
Reminder about our longest day of the year all together play day!
Plan for the Day!

Calderglen Country Park, come rain, hail or shine! We will be embracing this outdoor learning opportunity no matter the weather. This is an outdoor nursery day that you attend with your child. There will be no nursery session at IMFC on this day.
Time
Staff will be at the park from 9:30am – 3pm. Please feel free to attend whatever times suits you. Some parent will be there all day and others have requested that they only attend for part of the day.
Please let Joanne or Donna know your intentions for the day.
Travel
Please note that everyone should meet us at the park. If you require any advise regarding travel arrangement please see Joanne or Donna.
Things to do
Zoo – small charge to access this please see website
Café, Play Park, Forest Adventures, Splashing IN the river (Please ensure you have a change of clothes), Parachute sessions

We would suggest everyone is prepared for all weathers as we all know we can have 4 seasons in one day! If anyone requires a full waterproof suit please speak to a member of staff and we can lend you one.
Please note the adult who is accompanying your child has to ensure that they are supervised at all times.

Pop in and Play
Pop in and Play
Our next pop in and play sessions will take place W.B 23rd April. The last sessions in January were well attended and we had 17 responses from our online follow up feedback questionnaire. The feedback has been collated and is on the Improvement Planning wall if you would like to read our action plan. We have listened to what you told us and feedback was generally very good, so thank you! We will make any appropriate changes and for the upcoming pop in and play we will host a short coffee and chat beforehand to explain our ethos of child directed learning within the family centre, with particular reference to the Cara playroom.
Pop in and Play dates are:
Tuesday 24th April
Wednesday 25th April
Thursday 26th April
The usual planners are at the playroom doors, so please write your name beside the day that suits you best. Younger siblings are welcome to join in. Online feedback forms will be available following the sessions. Please complete as we want to ensure we are providing the best opportunities and want to make improvements to everything we do!
