Yes, It's Y Week!

Y week is upon us, and that means one more week of letters, then we move onto numbers (thanks, Jenny, for the suggestion). I have a cunning plan for numbers, I don't want to reveal too much, but I would love for you to send me photos of different numbers of things you see around the Centre! I look forward to receiving them!

Yippee! Nationals Results are in!

It was so hot at the weekend, so massive well done to all the competitors, and thank you to all the staff and volunteers who took the time to go up to Hartpury and support Team Avon. Results below!

Year End!

This was the last week of the RDA Term. Sessions will start again in September, but we have some exciting news! We will have a brand, spanking new arena surface in our indoor school when you come back! Andrews Bowen have dropped off their equipment ready to start work on Monday! Exciting!

Yay for Community Spirit!

Our Home School Grow in Nature group had a great final session before the holidays this week. They did a litter pick of lots of burst balloons (somone must have had a water fight in our picnic area!) and then they had a teddy bears' picnic! Our sessions are all about working with nature, respecting the environment, and of course, having fun! We will be running nature sessions over the holidays, so check the "What's On Calendar" on E C Pro to see what's available.
