TODAY'S PENARTH AREA EVENTS:

Buds and Blooms at Morel Court Care Home:

Come along and join the fun with our winter wonderland themed sessions for January at 1:45 pm. Activities will include sensory play, singing, signing, stories, craft, imaginative play, parachute games, instruments, free play, puppets and lots of topic related props. Buds and Blooms are small, friendly groups held in care homes in Barry on a Wednesday morning and Penarth on a Thursday afternoon. The residents love seeing us and interacting with the children. Book now to avoid disappointment as spaces will be limited to ten families per session. Sessions cost £2.50 for the first child and £1.25 for each additional sibling or the equivalent of £2 a session for the first child and £1.00 for each additional sibling if paid for in a block of a full month at a time. Sessions need to be booked and paid for in advance as places are limited due to the nature of the sessions.

Audio Book Club at Penarth Library:

FREE Book Club every second Thursday of the month at 2:00 pm. Audio books and a machine to play the book will be loaned to you. Listen to a book a month and then come along and discuss it at the next meeting. For further information contact: Melanie at the library (029 2070 8438) [email protected] Or Rebecca at Sight Cymru (014 9576 3650) [email protected]
