POGLES WOOD EXPLORERS

In May we had our ‘Build a Bird Box’ day. Five children came and made really lovely boxes. Thank you so much to Paul for coming to help us and to Sparkford Sawmills for sending their scrap timber. It was a happy, sunny day in every respect.

By the time you read this there will just be time to book for Summer Holiday Club sessions. These will be every Tuesday and Thursday throughout the summer holiday starting on Tuesday 26 July and finishing on Thursday 25 August. Sessions start at 10.00am and finish at 3.00pm although we can make provision for extra time if necessary, and are suitable for aged 5+. Children bring their own lunch as well as suitable clothing to be outdoors all day. We have deer so we therefore have ticks; children are advised to wear long trousers.

Muddy Monday sessions for accompanied pre-school children are in full swing and will carry on through the holidays. Sessions start at 12noon with a bring-your-own picnic and finish at 3.00pm, Cost £5 per child, school age siblings welcome during the school holidays. Please try to let me know on the day if you are coming, just in case it is a day we are not meeting for some reason.

We have had some lovely birthday parties already this year and there are more booked in the diary. Please let me know in good time if you have a special date coming up and want to book a Pogles Party. It’s brilliant for children but it is also a pretty good place for an adult or family celebration!
