Hello everyone! Thank you to all who have messaged the page showing interest in their little one starting playgroup. Unfortunately due to now having to pay SLC for hall hire we will be unable to run unless more children are interested in joining. Although the playgroup is a charity, we still need enough funds to pay staff members.
This is where you come in! Could you please share our post about playgroup restarting so we can get as much exposure as possible and keep this great asset to the community going.

🌈 At Uddingston Playgroup we understand the challenges that come with parenting under 5s. 🌈
Many little ones have spent their first few years of life navigating some pretty big changes and many families are still living with the impact the pandemic has had on their children’s behaviour. After months of bouncing off the same four walls, and with few opportunities to burn off their pent-up energy with other pre-schoolers, we know some days it’ll have been tough to say ‘no’ when we need a break!
So what can we do when their cheeky behaviour that may have once seemed ‘harmless’ or even ‘cute’, starts to wear thin?
Research shows that boundaries matter. Far from restricting character or creativity, clear expectations give young children the security they need to thrive as adults.
Care for the Family's new online course Boundary Lines - Setting loving limits in the early years is full of practical tips for creating loving limits and sticking to them.

Why should I send my child to playgroup?
While playing with cars or painting a masterpiece your child is also picking up valuable new skills and experiences. These include the following:
⭐️ This is the first time that the child is away from home and family even if it’s for a short period of time. This helps develop coping skills and prepares the child for staying away from home and family for formal school eventually.
⭐️ Helps the child deal with separation anxiety before entering school or nursery.
⭐️ Some children may suffer from some amount of stranger anxiety. Attending a play group is a good way to help the child overcome this.
⭐️ Helps develop new relationships with other children and make friends with them.
⭐️ Helps children develop new relationships with adults other than their family members
⭐️ Accepting instructions from adults other than the family members.
⭐️ Experience new play and art opportunities
⭐️Experiencing books and music
⭐️ Learn new skills including conflict resolution, problem solving, co-operation and sharing
⭐️ They learn more about themselves and others through play
⭐️ They learn to have fun through small and simple activities conducted in the play group
⭐️Builds resilience to enable them to cope with new situations and manage stress and adapt to change

Thank you for visiting the Uddingston Preschool Playgroup page!

We take children from 2 1/2 - 5 years old. Playgroup runs on a rota basis with parent helpers working alongside our fantastic play leaders. Once every few weeks you would be required to stay and lend a hand, bringing along a snack for the children. The current session times are Tuesday and Friday 9.30 - 11.30, Monday 12.30 - 2.30. It’s £6 for the 2 hours. If you would like to enquire about your child attending one of our fun-filled play sessions please send us a message containing your child's full name, DOB and a contact number for yourself.

We look forward to hearing from you soon,
Uddingston Preschool Playgroup Committee 😁

I can't tell you how happy I am to be writing this much anticipated post!

Uddingston Community Centre will be opening soon and taking bookings - ALLOWING THE PLAYGROUP TO REOPEN 🥳.

This is of course dependent on public interest so please get in touch if you have a 2 1/2-5 year old looking to start specifying which day(s) you would prefer. If your child previously came to playgroup, and you would like them to return please message the page. Any shares would be much appreciated

We look forward to hopefully seeing you all soon. 😁

Hello Everyone!

Hope you and your families are all keeping well and enjoying the summer holidays ☀️

We’ve had a lot of enquiries about playgroup opening back, and unfortunately, as of right now, playgroup is still closed. We don’t know if/when it will re-open as we haven’t heard anything about the community centre opening back up.

If there is any news to be shared, we will share it here on our fb page. But for the time being, we sadly just don’t know.

Thank you and enjoy the summer! ☺️

Hello Everyone ☺️

Just a little update to keep you all informed.

First and foremost, we hope your families are all doing well and keeping safe. We have unofficially heard that the community centre will be closed until April/May of 2021, and even that is not a definite opening date as we deal with these trying times.

We just wanted to keep you updated, as we’ve had a lot of traffic on our page (many thanks for that 😀) and some queries about waiting lists, if/when we are opening back up, etc. So as of now, that’s all we know. If we hear anything else, we will keep you all updated.

Stay safe everyone and know that we are missing playgroup just as much as you all are! ☺️
