Good news!
Hey everyone - we've got some great news.
As of week commencing 23rd June, we will be back in all the parks TWO DAYS A WEEK!
It'll be just as we used to be, but incase anyone's forgotten here's a reminder:
Patchway will be Mondays & Wednesdays
Thornbury will be Mondays & Wednesdays
Yate will be Tuesdays & Thursdays
Filton will be Tuesdays & Thursdays
We look forward to seeing you all more often again!
Wednesday 18th June
Hey guys - don't forget to bring your clay models back this afternoon so you can paint them.......and be sure to wear some old clothes so you don't get too messy!
We've also got a new Play Ranger coming along to the park - Kirstie (not Kirsty, Kirstie. that's someone else!), and I'm sure she's looking forward to meeting you all.
See you later!

All sessions cancelled today (Wednesday 28th May)
Hey everyone - as it's been such a horrible day today and we've got lots of work to do to prepare for some exciting new changes to Play Rangers, we're going to cancel this afternoon's sessions.
See you all next week! Stay dry and warm!
The Play Rangers

Keep your fingers crossed...
......that it stays sunny for Wednesday because if it does then we are going to bring the water catapults and play some games with them!
We'll also have a game of rounders, and find something arty and crafty to do as well...any requests?

Rain rain go away!
Hey everyone - I'm back from my trip, so will be at the park with Emma K this afternoon...let's hope the weather gets a bit better!
We're going to bring the nets again, which we'll bring out if it stops raining (it's a bit too dangerous if it's wet), otherwise we'll hopefully be able to play some games in the ruts if the glass has been cleaned up.
See you later!

Don't forget
Heya - don't forget that we're only going to be in the parks on WEDNESDAYs after school for a little while, as we're short staffed at the moment.
Hopefully we'll get some new Play Rangers soon, then we can get back to being in the parks twice a week!
On Wednesday we have a few fun games to play, although we would like our football back after someone took it with them last Monday.
Hopefully it will turn up on Wednesday

Session Cancelled
Hi guys
sorry to say this but the session today in Thornbury has had to be cancelled due to staff illness. But dont worry we will be back in the park next week as usual.

Thornbury next week
On Monday we're going to bring some dressing up clothes and some bits and pieces to make our own mini-gardens....we'll play some tennis and football too I expect as well.
Wednesday we'll have the parachute (as long as it's not too windy!) and we'll have a go at making our own "Mini Books"...like those pirate/spy game books you had with Emma and Nicky a few weeks ago.
Anyone got any other ideas?

Last Day
Hey everyone today is my last day.
I am sorry I have not made it to the park this week but I have not been very well.
I have enjoyed meeting all of you and the sessions in the park. Don't forget to keep playing.
Even though I will be in America coaching football you can still leave me messages on the website if you like and Barry will pass them onto me.
Thanks, Nicky

This Week We Will Be....
Hey Guys, weather was a bit miserable last week so we did not get to use the nets! Fear not we will be bringing them this week.
We also thought we could have another dry snowball fight, it is nearly Christmas!
We will be bringing a football, the cricket set and some clay too.
Hope the weather is better this week!
C U all in the park

What are we doing this week? Mon 3rd and wed 5th December
Hey you guys!
How is every one? Well December is here which means........... Christmas is just around the corner.
This week we will be bringing some new clay that comes in different colours. We know how much you enjoy making models so we thought we wold bring some different clay to use.
We thought we could also set you a challenge. Everyone loves to use the spinning plates so we thought we would see if you can make your own just using a paper plate and a twig!?!
Hopefully we will be able to bring the nets as well.
C U all there,
Nicky

what's going on 26th & 28th Nov
Hey guys!
Weather has been a bit rubbish this week. We are glad to see that some of you still come out though!
Next week we thought being as it is so cold we would bring the fire building stuff to keep us nice and warm, no firemen this time though we hope!
We also thought we could make some natural pictures using the leaves and twigs in the park. We will bring some random objects and see how many different games we can play using those objects.
Any other ideas don't forget you can leave us a comment so we can use those ideas in the park.
Keep warm and bring your coats!
Nicky

Thanks everyone!
Our first Super Saturday was a great success, it was great to see so many of you on a chilly Saturday morning!
Today we've been to Thornbury FM and had a great chat with Gary Price, and then went to Gillingstool for an assembly (thanks for helping us out Tanisha, Zach, Josh, Pierce, and Charlotte!).
This afternoon we're doing another assembly(!), this time at Christ The King school, and then we'll be at the park with some paints to finish off the candle holders, some more clay in case you didn't make one the other day, and the parachute.
As for Wednesday........we've not planned it yet: we want your ideas. What shall we do on Wednesday?
Posted on 12 Nov 2007 by Barry
Whats Going On!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey everyone,
Hope you enjoyed the bingo yesterday. It was nice to see how everybody has improved on their circus skills too!
Wednesday we thought we would try a new game called Capture The Flag. If you are not sure how to play the game come on down to the park to find out..........
We also thought we would bring some arts and crafts to make some alien heads. It is very funny and well worth a go!
CU all in the park!
Nicky

What would you like to do to welcome her back?

No session Monday :(
Hey guys
just a quick reminder that we're not going to be in the park on Monday (3rd September) :(
We will be back Wednesday though, doing some kite making so keep your fingers crossed we get a little bit of wind!
So have a great first day back at school, and a great big massive huge GOOD LUCK!!! to everyone moving up to secondary school - we know it might seem a little scary, but remember that there will be a couple of hundred other new Year 7s...all feeling a bit scared too...so you'll make loads of new friends in no time!
bye for now

Hey guys - thanks to everyone who came along to our session at the park on Saturday, it was really good fun....even though I did get a little bit sunburned!

Posted on 29 Mar 2007 by Barry
28th February - sorry!
Hey guys - really sorry we couldn't make it to the park yesterday.
I know we're usually out in all weathers, but last night was soooooooo windy we thought it'd be a bit unsafe to be out near all those trees!
See you next Monday!

How to use the website
Heya - just wanted to remind everyone that you can put your own messages on most pages of the website
just click the word "Comments" underneath any of the messages that we write, on any of the pages, and you can reply to what we've said!
Also, if you'd like to start your own topic to talk about, go to our Messageboard by clicking the word "Messageboard" on the left, click which park you want to write about, then click on "new thread".
Make sure you remember NOT to put any of your personal information on there (no email addresses, phone numbers, or home addresses) because we need to be just as careful about Strangers online as we are in the Parks.
Otherwise, have fun and get chatting!
