What to expect for 2021:
Please remember it is up to the group to organise activities each term and support those lovely parents (and grandparents!) who volunteer their time and effort. Make sure to check out the ABOUT page for more details. Our Behaviour Guidelines are available there. Parents are to remain at the venue and remain responsible for their children at all times.
Below is a description of the main workshops being run each term. We also have an end of term party, excursions, incursions, movie nights, a lantern festival and a co-op magazine edited and compiled by the kids. And much much more.
Families will be asked to leave their contact details with the coordinator (Joanne) and there will be a limit to the numbers allowed on site at any one time. Please continue to be sensible about coming in to CO-OP when you or a member of your family is feeling unwell.
