Our Quiet Club is a wonderful space for children to enjoy a peaceful break time, and we are currently looking at ways to make this provision even better and would love to refresh our collection of games and activities.
If you are currently clearing out your cupboards, please consider donating any used or unwanted board games, jigsaw puzzles, or activity books that are still in great condition.
To help the children get straight into the fun, we are looking for games that are complete and easy to play independently within a lunchtime session.
Great examples include:
Fun Games that don't take too long to play: Dobble, Uno, Connect 4, or Guess Who.
Traditional Favorites: Snakes and Ladders, Ludo, or Draughts.
Solo Activities: Jigsaw puzzles (around 100 pieces) or "Search and Find" books.
If you have anything suitable, please drop it off at the School Office. Your generosity will go a long way in helping us enhance this calm and creative space for the children!
