We would<\/p>\n<p>like to thank Emma Wheadon for arranging our transport with Wheadon\u2019s Coaches.<\/p>\n<p>All 55 of us boarded the coach at 9:30am in soggy wet Wenvoe, to arrive in Cwmbran 40 minutes later, where it was dry and cloudy. As the morning progressed the sun shone through, with blue skies arriving just in time for lunch. We were really lucky with the weather and felt blessed, as on our return to Cardiff it was still raining!<\/p>\n<p>The children and their families had an enjoyable day. We walked around the farm in small groups, stopping to feed the animals along the way, taking the odd photo or two! The children enjoyed the open space and the play areas available and an enjoyable social time was had by all.<\/p>\n<p>Some children stopped at the barn to watch a cow being milked, \u2018beginning to understand where milk comes from and how\u2019. After the milking, we enjoyed our picnic in the park and ended our day with a tractor and trailer ride. How great was that?<\/p>\n<p>Playgroup is now closed for the summer holidays and will re-open at 9am on Monday 7th September. In September, we will be offering day-care on<\/p>\n<p>Mondays and Thursdays along with afternoon sessions.
