Who's at the Zoo? | Loughborough 5-8yrs
Immerse yourself in the animal kingdom! Join us for a fun filled animal experience, as we discover different animals and learn more about them; from the sounds they make, what they eat, how they move and where they live. We’ll have a range of sensory activities on offer including animal themed stories, crafts and yoga. This session is a great way to have fun as a family, whilst supporting your child’s communication, interaction and play skills.
Our Summer sessions for children aged 5-8yrs are part of Leicestershire County Council’s Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme. This means that, alongside our fun sensory activities, families will be provided with a free lunch during the day.
Our animal themed sessions will take place on 03 & 17 August. These will be the same the session, so we’d recommend just attending one session, on the date that suits you best.
