GATEWAY CHURCH ASHFORD

What Gateway Church Ashford says

Every Thursdays, 10-11:30am @The Riverside Centre You no longer need to sign up, just turn up on the day! We really want to support our families over this challenging time in every way we are permitted, and as such, I am really pleased to invite you to our baby and toddler group! Lockdown has not been easy on our little ones, and on their parents so we really wanted to have an opportunity for our children to play and for their parents to connect with other parents in the church and local community. We are holding the group on Thursdays 10-11.30 at the Riverside and will have spaces available for babies, as well toys and activities for the toddlers to play with. This is available for all those who have a child not yet at school. There are some guidelines that we will need to adhere to, to ensure we are inline with government guidance. These are more fully explained below. You no longer need to sign up, just turn up on the day! We really hope you consider joining us and look forward to seeing you soon. Below are the steps we are taking to ensure we can meet together safely. We will: - Have a dedicated space at the Riverside we can use without being disturbed, including our own separate toilets for the group. - Will be using outside as much as possible. - Provide pre packed snacks for the children to avoid anything being unnecessarily touched. - Take temperatures on arrival. - Have various spaced out activities for the older children to engage in. - Ask for sign up details so we can trace anyone that has symptoms. - Try to provide consistency in the adults supporting the group each week. Please can you: - Bring your own drinks for your child. - Keep 1 meter plus from all other adults in the room. - Please don’t attend to another child unless you are helping with the group that day. Children will not be asked to socially distance in the group, but it is important that each adult try and maintain distance from others as much as they are able. We're looking forward to see
