Tuesday 2nd January
Report written by Michael
In some rather blowy winds tonight, we met up once again for a goodgym session. After a couple of weeks break for most of us, it was lovely to see the smiling faces back for a brand-new year.
And of course, a NEW CHALLEGE – that’s right you goodgym crew, we have our JANUARY CHALLENGE officially started.
The Challenge that we have set for Cardiff is as follows:
2 groups today with joggers and walkers alike, some of us decided to take a longer route and make the most of that first group run ‘feeling’. Oh and what delights awaited us.......
For the first time, tonight we were setting up for the play group......
First, remove the gaffer tape from the floor for a good clean. Next, lets get those tables out from their sleep and throw them around the room (figuratively). Now for the fun, it’s time for a goodgym chain, as we pass the soft play, mats and toys from the storage unit into the hall.
And the skies open and weep at the joy that we feel on this task.
Now to get set up, toys are flying, stories are being made as they are placed so very carefully. We did get slightly carried away with this task and spent a bit of extra time.
But it was
It will probably be no longer than 20 minutes before it’s all over the floor, but it looks good for those young people when they arrive. We have plenty up on our site now, including some weekend community missions with Global Gardens, or a lovely litter pick stroll through Bute Park. I’m also adding some sunset runs too so keep an eye out for the next group e-mail for more information.
Until next time.
we are a registered charity #1182360 and run Saturday play sessions for children with additional needs and their families, with qualified play workers who facilitate play while parents are able to talk and meet like minded parents/carers, we offer support and advice for parents.
