What an amazing turnout for our midweek breather with the fun “Under the Sea” theme! It was such a joy to catch up with everyone, admire the kids’ creative masterpieces 🎨✨, and enjoy a refreshing dose of nature, crafts, and connection. 🍃🍁💚

Thanks to all who came along—it was a beautiful way to reset and reconnect with our families.

Team PNS had a lovely day at Kelvingrove Museum! Big thanks to May for the fantastic clay fish workshop – such a fun and creative experience.

We had a fantastic day in Millport connecting with families and sharing the things that fill our cups. Thank you to the North Ayrshire Community Learning and Development team for the invite.

A collage of children and families participating in educational and artistic activities. Kids and adults are seen painting, crafting fish-themed artwork, exploring museum exhibits, and sitting together on picnic blankets in a park. Group photos and indoor classroom sessions reflect a community atmosphere. The crafts include jellyfish models, painted canvases, and clay art. There are also scenes of museum visits, interactive learning, and a welcoming sign with a tree made of colorful thumbprints.
