Parent & Toddler Page

HCGC has its own Parent and Toddler Group. The group meet every two weeks throughout the year to learn and grow together through horticulture. Our sessions started back after a break over christmas and new year on Thursday 7th Feb.

The sessions are open to all 0-5 year olds, accompanied with an adult. Each session costs £2 and runs from 11am til 12pm. Refreshments and materials are included in the fee. Below is a timetable of dates and activities from now until July.

All are welcome to come along any Thrusday and hopefully if this is a success we aim to expand and offer a range of activities for all children through out school holidays.
