This would make for a lovely afternoon on a Monday during the summer. Have you been out to the terrace behind Arthurstone Library? I hadn't until recently when I noticed their Raspberry Pi bird display. We can get some quality time with nature without having to leave the city. 🐦

This is a great event for soon-to-be P7s or those moving on to S1. Most of the organisations involved in this all-ages event are for teenagers, but this Community Event is for the whole family. It's all happening on this Friday from 12pm to 4pm at Hot Chocolate Trust, Steeple Church. If you are a Google maps user here is a link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/i1Akih6ksNH5K2YX8

This Friday!! Start your summer holidays with us at Hot Chocolate Trust! We'll be joined by loads of other organisations from Dundee for a free community event! There will be lots of games, snacks, football, face painting and the gaming bus!

Looking for a few more things to do this summer? The DCA has family friendly activities throughout the summer. The DCA is roughly a 20 minute bus ride or a 30 minute walk from the school area. Check your favourite map app for exact directions if you don't know the way 😃

If your child is interested in sports or the world cup, there is a family friendly world cup event this afternoon!

This amazing space will be open in time for the summer holiday! Practice bike skills here in Dundee and then either use our lovely riverside bike bath or pop over to Arbroath to hire a bike for 99p and use their new bike paths 😁 And don't forget that Active Dundee has a £1 swim special this summer too. We'll be sharing any fun local area things to do. Let us know if you spot something we should share 🌟

Have you booked in yet? This lovely park is so close to Cleppie! Support the library, help keep this lovely space clean, and learn all about the birds in Baxter Park. You might even be able to pop in to the lovely cafe just near the playground. We were going to be there but unfortunately we have a long-standing commitment on the same day. But we will be able to enjoy the lovely litter-free grounds when we go to Baxter Park junior parkrun the following day. Thank you in advance for all the hard work that the Saturday volunteers will put in! You guys are absolute ⭐ ⭐️ 🌟 legends 😃
