The children of the Hopscotch pre-school group at St Mary's Church Thornbury are very sad because their play mats have been taken away.

A lady with a toddler in a buggy took them out of the church during half term, on Tuesday 19th February. She had a friend with her, also with a child in a buggy and an older child, walking.

Perhaps the mats were borrowed to use at a special occasion?

Please bring them back and leave them at the back of the church.

Come and join us for the weekly Hopscotch session on Thursday mornings at 9am, and see how we use the mats while we make things on the theme of each session, and when we have our snacks at the end.
