The South Bray Resource Centre

We are delighted to be able to facilitate a new Pink Ribbon peer support group for women who are affected by Breast Cancer. The group is the brainchild of Natalie Moloney who has done such amazing work in raising awareness and also fundraising for Breast Cancer over the last 2 years. Many of you might not realise that Natalie has also quietely supported and been a rock for many local women affected by this disease and has always been available to talk and encourage anyone struggling on their journey. Natalie hopes that the group will be a safe space for women to come together and support each other

We transformed our old shed to a great outdoor play area for the children to play in.
This has created a wonderful space for them to explore, play and created ideas.
🌱 Benefits of Outdoor Play

Outdoor play is extremely important for children's overall development. It provides opportunities for children to be active, explore their surroundings and develop independence.

Physical development:
Running, jumping, climbing, balancing and throwing help children develop their gross motor skills, coordination, strength and balance.

Social development:
Playing outdoors encourages children to communicate, share, take turns, cooperate and develop friendships. Group games also help children learn how to negotiate and solve disagreements.

Emotional wellbeing:
Outdoor environments can give children space to relax, express themselves and build confidence. Successfully trying something new can give children a sense of achievement and independence.

Cognitive development:
Outdoor play encourages children to investigate, experiment, problem-solve and develop curiosity. Natural materials such as leaves, sticks, mud, sand and water provide endless opportunities for discovery and learning.

A partial solar eclipse will take place tomorrow, Wednesday, 12 August.
Looking directly at the sun can cause serious and permanent eye damage. If you plan to view the eclipse, always use certified solar eclipse glasses or a solar viewer and make sure children are supervised.
