Rhyme Time
Rhyme Time is a special opportunity for you and your little one to enjoy rhymes and songs. It allows children to hear rhymes, stories and language and broaden their creativity and imagination. Sessions are held on Tuesdays at 11am during the school term. Suitable for babies to toddlers. Parents, grandparents and friends are very welcome.
