Events for Children Referred to Noah's Ark
We understand how important play and leisure time is to children and young people.
By focusing on what they can do, rather than any perceived limitations we make sure that fun is at the heart of everything that we do.
We enable young family members to have positive and fun experiences and to develop mutually supportive relationships with siblings from other families.
Noah’s Ark Children Groups
The Cubs – ages 0 to 4
For babies and young children with a range of abilities but all share a love of fun. The group offers young children a chance to play with others their own age, as well as offering a respite opportunity to parents and carers. Parents/carers are welcome to stay if they prefer.
The Crocodiles – ages 5 to 12
The Crocodile group focuses on sensory activities for children with lower cognitive awareness, focusing on plenty of touch, sight and sound encouragement. Our care team is on hand and can offer one-to-one support to help children engage in the activities as needed.
The Penguins – ages 5 to 12
The Penguin group is suitable for children with good awareness, even if they might need physical assistance to complete activities, who have sound understanding during high and low energy activities. With some support from our care team, the children can take part in activities similar to other children of their own age.
The Youth Group – ages 13+
Our Youth Group is suitable for teenagers of all abilities.
