Community Groups
Parent and Toddler Group
The Parent and Toddler Group provides a relaxed, social environment in which parents and children can interact through play. Weekly activities include playing with toys, snack time, song time and ball play. Other special events include fund-raising, a summer outing and Christmas party.
The group meets from 10.00–11.30am every Tuesday (except during school holidays) in the West Church hall. A fee of £1 per family is payable for each weekly session. This is a very relaxed group in which parents/grandparents supervise their own children. It is an ideal place to meet other people, especially if you are new to Croamrty or are a first-time parent.
