Skills Description
Our play sessions are based around our huge train sets, which the children can build and play with. Our volunteer team help to set up the session by building the train tracks across the floor of the hall and putting out chairs for the parents. When the families arrive, we leave the children to play together but always keep an eye on their activities. The children help to tidy up at the end of the 1.5 hour session. Our volunteer team then help to put everything away and leave the venue clean and tidy.

What's the time commitment and where? 

Time Commitment

1 hour to set up the play session, 1.5hrs during the session and up to 30 minutes to pack away at the end.
