Pigg’s Playbarn news, Apley Farm Shop
Venetia with owl at Apley jousting fair
There’s lots of news to share from Pigg’s Playbarn at Apley Farm Shop (it’s what I call a picnic of news – you can nibble [scan] the bits which interest you the most !):
On Mon 20 & Tues 21 July, a secondhand toy & clothes sale will help raise funds for those caught in the Nepal earthquakes. The Old Vicarage Adventure Centre (http://www.ovac.co.uk) are running a campaign to raise £25,000 for this cause. Donations very welcome ! Vital shelter kits will help thousands of people who have lost their homes following this year’s earthquakes in Nepal.
On these lovely hotter days, The Creamery Café (eat in) & Farm Shop (eat out) can meet all your icecream needs !
The penultimate session of our After School Music Club is this week on Thursdays 9 July, as the summer holidays start after our last session next Thursday 16 July. Pigg’s Playbarn have a great programme of FREE activities throughout the summer holidays. Every Tuesday, 10-12noon get creative with our cardboard box club. Every Wednesday, there are craft activities free with normal Playbarn entry – including paper plate butterflies, egg box bugs & sock puppets. The first & last Wednesdays are devoted to teddy bears’ picnics, to start & finish the holiday. Buy tickets in the Playbarn or call 01925 730 345 option 3.
To kick off the summer holidays in Scotty’s Animal Park, there will be a static display of owls (like this Venetia held at Apley’s 2nd Jousting Fair) in the Animal Park for people to hold, touch & stroke on Tuesday 21st July, 10-4pm. Normal admission prices to Scotty’s Animal Park apply, but there will be no additional charge to see the owls.
If you find the summer holidays & having the children at home all day every day a bit much, then Annie’s Reiki Centre has the answer. She has organised some Yummy Mummy Sooth days on Tuesdays 10-12noon in the Playbarn, offering 10 minute shoulder massages for mothers waiting for their children. Booking is not required. For details, call Annie on 07976 22 69 54 or email annie.reiki@tiscali.co.uk.
