Newbald Church Rooms.
The Newbald Church Rooms, originally the Old School, were salvaged and renovated by a dedicated group of parents in 2002 to offer fun, friendship and development for the youngsters of Newbald and surrounding villages.
Children between the ages of 4 and 16 meet at three different club sessions during the week. Supervised by staff and volunteers the children have been able to get involved in a diverse range of activities, such as cookery and film nights, trips out, football, street dancing, organising fundraising events and taking part in the Youth Council. An important ethos of the Rooms is that children should be allowed to play within the safe environment of the club. The children also have, if they need, a safe haven from other difficulties and problems they may be experiencing elsewhere.
All children are welcome to come along and join in the fun.
