Play Rangers
The Play Rangers are back for the Easter 2013 holidays!
Our Play Rangers operate an 'open access' principle, meaning that children are free to come and go as they please. All our play rangers have Watford Borough Council on their uniforms and will be wearing a Watford Council Identity badge.
The Play Rangers will be present in the parks around the town, providing opportunities for children and young people aged 5 – 15 years to be challenged, take acceptable risks and have fun outdoors come rain or shine! Activities will include den building, parachute games, tree climbing, kite making, art and crafts, multi sports, circus skills and more. Look out for the clearly identifiable staff in bright clothing with name badges and Council logos on their shirts.
- Basic registration is required
- All sessions are free of charge
- Play isn’t always clean and dry, so wear something suitable
- All Play Ranger staff are Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checked (previously CRB checks)
- Children will be encouraged to share their ideas and help us plan future sessions
