About Family Saturdays: Ages 3-5

Join us at the Octagon on selected Saturday mornings for FREE family storytelling sessions for children and their grownups. Sharing stories through creative play to spark imaginations!

Family Saturdays is a space where families can explore and learn together, each week we read different stories and bring them to life either through drama, dance, crafts and other fun-filled ways.

Towards the end of the session, children and families can enjoy a healthy snack on us! If you have any allergies or access needs, please do let us know when you complete your booking.

This is one of two Family Saturdays groups. The second runs at a later time and is for children ages 5 to 7 - you can find more information here.
