There are 2 Parents Week 0-4 Events taking place during the Halloween week, on Monday 28th and Tuesday 29th October. Booking has not opened yet - it will go live on Friday, 11th October on the bottom of this page.

Who can participate?

The Colin Sure Start parents week activities are open to any family registered with Colin Sure Start. To book any event, you must be registered with Colin Sure Start, which means you live in the Colin area and have a child or children under 4. If you want to book on and this applies to you, but are not sure if you are registered, please give us a call on 90601417 and our team can assist you in getting registered if you are eligible. All of the events and activities are aimed at children under age 4. Parents or carers can bring older children to the events, provided they have at least one child under 4, and any older siblings are there to support and understand that the activities will be catering for younger children.

Activities

The events will include a range of Halloween and autumn themed activities - sensory play, arts and crafts, biscuit decorating, our spooky tent and light and shadows activity and a visit from Make a Sound who will be providing lots of interactive entertainment for everyone. The activities will aim to support all abilities and ages from 0-4. Parents or carers are responsible for their children at all times during the events so you attend with them and full participation is encouraged! A baby area will be set up at all events for mums/dads with newborns, and there will be toilets and changing facilities provided at all venues.

Booking

We are using our online booking system for the parents week activities which is new for us so please bear with us! In order to accommodate as many families as possible, and given the massive interest in these activities we have received in the past, we are asking parents/carers initially to limit their choices to just one day. If the events are fully booked, you still will be able to add your name to a 'reserve' list so that if spaces become available due to cancellations you may be offered a space.

Confirmation

Once you have booked on to an event successfully, an email will be sent to the address you provide to confirm your booking. Our staff will also contact you a few days in advance of any event you have booked on to by phone just to confirm everything and run through any details with you. If for any reason you are no longer able to attend an event that you have booked on, there is a link on the confirmation email to 'cancel your booking' - if we could ask that you please cancel if unable to attend as this will allow another family to take up the place. Many thanks

Health and Safety

All our activities are risk assessed and there will be a named first-aid staff member at each event. Please remember that your child or children remain your responsibility at all times during the activities or events.
