(6th December)
Father Christmas will be joining us in our magical sensory grotto. Each child will be given a premium gift – providing they are on the nice list of course. There will be low slot numbers to allow extra time to take in all of the sensory aspects of our magical Grotto, so early pre-booking is recommended. PLUS you can join the fun at our exclusive SEN ice skate. You and your children can enjoy the ice and can either use full traditional skates, twin bladed ice skates for added stability or over shoe grippers (size depending). During our Super SEN skating sessions, push chairs and wheel chairs will be allowed on the ice.
It’s a chance for the whole family to enjoy some quality time together with low levels of music, absolute minimal queuing and the opportunity when booking online to tell us everything we need to know about your child to ensure they enjoy their visit, i.e. any ‘dos and dont’s’ for your child, any specific interests to help your child feel at ease and anything else that we will need to be aware of.
