Buffy
Playbus provides
pre-school children with an opportunity to play, socialise and have
fun in comfortable and safe surroundings under the guidance of
qualified playleaders. Mums, Dads, Grandparents and carers
can relax and make friends within their own communities or
just "chill out" and enjoy seeing their children having
fun.
Activities
On-board Buffy we have a vast array of toys and activities such as painting, playing with sand, dressing up clothes, a story corner, ball pond, role play area, Brio train set and lots of toys and games.
We always have a seasonal activity for children to take part in, such as planting seeds or making a craft item.
We have toilet facilities and a baby changing area.
Thanks to a recent donation from Tesco Bags of Help Scheme, we are able to offer a regular cooking activity.
We make a variety of delicious healthy recipes like Fresh Fruity Flapjacks, Savoury Wraps and Olive Bread Rolls. Just check on-board Buffy for our next Cooking activity week.
No need to book just turn up. The sessions are most suitable for children over the age of 2 years.
Each child goes home with the food that they have made plus a laminated recipe card.
This is a great activity for teaching children to share and take turns but also to try foods that they may not have eaten before.
Buffy News
Buffy reached its target!
We are nearly ready to launch the new bus
and are just building our Sensory Den funded by all the pledges
made in our Crowdfund last month.
Thanks again to all who supported us - You raised a total of
£5175.00!
The Sensory Den will make a huge difference to the service we
run & impact widely on the families we support! Thank you for
all your pledges!
The space will be dedicated to the sensory needs of all children. We will use lighting, soft materials, inviting colour schemes and interactive play to provide a safe & comforting environment where children can learn & play. This area will give a feeling of independence and help build self-confidence as children explore different stimulating activities in a relaxing manner. This will be a special place where children feel entirely at ease and are able to initiate & control effects of the experiences they create. The project has real power to make a big difference.
Co-Op Community Fund
Buffy Playbus has been selected to receive funding from the Co-op Local Community Fund.
It means that we could receive a contribution towards running Buffy, every time you shop and buy Co-op own brand goods. But we need your help.
The more support
we get, the more funding we could receive. If you're
a
Co-op Member log in to your Membership account and choose Buffy. If you're not a member, please join and support us!’
Every time you shop at the Co-op and choose Buffy Playbus we will receive a boost to our funds.
Thank you Co-op for this amazing initiative.
Every September we ask each parent and carer who attends Buffy to fill out a new registration form, to make sure that we have up to date contact details.
We ask for these details so that if we have a problem with the bus or the weather is not suitable to go out, we can contact you.
This will usually be by phone, text, email or socail media.
The
information that you give us is kept securely and protected by the
Data Protection Privacy Policy 2018.
We do however have a duty to share information if an issue arises regarding the safeguarding of your child.
