Toddle a doddle

Children at QEII Park Preschool took part in last month’s Barnardos Canterbury Big Toddle sponsored walk, helping the charity and raising some money for their centre. Around the country, Barnardos estimates more than 6000 under-fives took part.

QEII’s centre takes children up to five years old and is open from 8.30am-4.30pm Monday to Friday. To contact them, call 383 4595. A similar service operates the same hours at Pioneer Leisure Centre, for children up to six years old. Its phone number is 941 7684.
