Under Fives Roundabout

Under Fives Roundabout Providing excellence in pre-school care for children aged 2 years 6 months to 5 years We moved into our own premises for preschool in September 2008.

Under Fives Roundabout is a registered charity and not-for-profit community group, established in 1980 in the Round Church Hall. Under Fives Roundabout is run by an elected committee, which ensures that major decision-making is in the hands of the parents who use the groups. The committee is responsible for reviewing both policy and practice, the employment and appraisal of members of staff, fundraising, and many other tasks that ensure the smooth running of our groups. Toddler Group meets on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays during term-time between 9:15am and 11:30am in the Community Room at Mayfield Primary School, Warwick Road, Cambridge. The cost per session is £3.50 for the first child and £1.20 for brothers and sisters over 12 months (baby siblings come free!).

The wonderful staff team at Roundabout are very pleased to announce that we are holding our first Autumn Fair on Wednesday 30th September, 330-530, at the preschool. We have an incredible raffle, a variety of stalls including face paints, glitter tattoos, tombola, guess the name of the dinosaur plus more!
We’d love to see families past and present and everyone who wants to support Under Fives Roundabout. Come and say hello to the fabulous ladies who make Roundabout the special setting it is.
And you will be helping us raise funds for a new playhouse at the Toddler Group!

Dear all, a combination of extreme heat and staff shortage means I won't be able to open group tomorrow morning (Friday 26th June)
Please accept my apologies, but I think it's in your best interests too as the room was so hot on Tuesday!

Before I knew I would be closed tomorrow, I had prepared some dinosaurs in bowls of water in the freezer. You can do this at home; you could make some space in your freezer this evening and ask your child to help you, then see what's happened tomorrow morning. Ask them to help you to rescue their dinosaurs/animals/whatever toy you choose. Please do check the toys won't break if they're frozen!

I look forward to seeing you all next week, for a more comfortable session!

I’m looking forward to welcoming you all back to toddler group tomorrow morning and am busy preparing some spiralling snakes for you to decorate!
