Mrs. Katherine Weir-Davis
PLAYGROUP LEADER
Ten years ago, when I first arrived at BSG, Playgroup did not exist.
With the help of a parent volunteer we set up a meeting place for
families to bring their little ones to play together once a week. Starting
a small gathering of four families, ten years on and this small gathering
with
has
blossomed into a hugely successful Playgroup, which has welcomed
1,000+ families over the past ten years.
Now in its tenth year, Playgroup continues to be an incredibly
valuable resource for expatriate families looking for a safe
stimulating place for their children to explore, play and develop.
Playgroup also gives parents a unique opportunity to meet
other families from the community with whom they can
advice or simply share experiences with, ultimately offering
crucial social network.

Playgroup takes place in our Indoor Activity Room at our Early Years campus, which is fully air-conditioned and heated
with air purifiers to ensure the highest air quality possible. Complete with ball pool, role play areas, soft play area
specifically for under twos, climbing frames, slides, cars, trikes, and many other stimulating resources for little ones it is
the ideal place for a fun and developmentally challenging experience.
The Coffee Shop that is attached to the Activity Room is of course the crowning glory for parents, with windows looking
directly into the Activity Room, where better to relax with an invigorating cup of coffee and a delicious snack whilst
being able to keep an eye on your little ones!
We welcome children of all ages, so if you have a new born baby to pre-school aged, please do feel free to join us. BSG
Playgroup is free and takes place every Thursday (excluding school holidays) between 9:30-11:30am. Please note that

Please note that the Playgroup is not exclusively for BSG families, our doors are open to the wider community –
