Playing in the May Half Term



Play returns to Montgomeryshire

Play Montgomeryshire are bringing two play sessions to Newtown and Machynlleth during the May half term Holiday, and one in Welshpool and Caersws - all of them free of charge.

They will be running a Splash of Play, outside in 
Machynlleth on the Bryn y Gog Estate, on Tuesday 27th May from 10am to 12 noon
Caersws at the Main Street Playground, on Tuesday 27th May from 2 to 4pm
Newtown Town Park near Radio Hafren, on Thursday 29th May from 10am to 12 noon.
Welshpool on the Oldford Estate near Scansis Pitch, on Thursday 29th May from 2 to 4pm

Activities will include games, crafts, dressing up and woodland activities. It is free of charge and open to all children. The activities are targeted to children aged 8 to 12 years old, but other children are welcome. Teens can enjoy supporting the younger children (and do a bit themselves), whilst children under 8 years will need to bring their own responsible adult who can also join in the fun!
 
They will also be joining up with Newtown Library to play and do crafts about ponds and bugs, on Tuesday 27th May from 10am to 12 noon in Newtown Library. The Library Staff will be reading stories to the children and Play Montgomeryshire will be running a Stay and Play session for children of all ages afterwards.
The Stay and Play sessions will involve a wide range of interesting and challenging craft activities, plus toys to play with and join in with their friends. Activities include Pond plates, pipecleaner bugs and magic butterflies.
There will also be the regular Play Montgomeryshire last Saturday of the month  craft session from 10.30 to 12 from 31st May onwards.

The usual Machynlleth Stay and Play in the Machynlleth Community Church will be running on the Wednesday from 10 to 12, their Saturday craft session will be on the 7th June from 10.30 to 12 noon.

The Stay and Play's also operate a Play Resource Library, selling low cost craft items and loaning toys for a small fee. Membership is free of charge, but you do not need to be a member to come and play.
