"End of Thursday morning Toddler Time"

We have just been informed that, come September, it is likely that the Toddler Time session on Thursday mornings will be coming to an end. Whilst i understand the reason that changes are being made throughout the whole centre, I am extremely disappointed (as are all the Parents/Grandparents that regularly attend the session) that this is one of the session that will be cut. All of us at some point attended the old Wednesday morning pop in and play, and it really isn't the same. 

For me and my daughter the Thursday am session is perfect. Not only logistically but because it is such a pleasant, calm atmosphere. My daughter is cared for by Grandparents while i work and therefore doesn't attend nursery. This is the main session she attends during the week that gives her a chance to be sociable with other children. She is extremely shy and other toddlers groups i have attended with her are far too busy and chaotic and she just doesn't like them. When you started running this session it was a god send. As i said it is such a calm, pleasant environment. It is somewhere she is familiar with as we have been attending the centre since she was 6 weeks old. She has thrived since we have been attending TT. Her confidence has grown remarkably and her social skills are clearly developing. 

On paper i appreciate that by having a Wednesday session it appears that you are still catering for the Thursday group but many of us work Wednesdays or due to past experience with that session wouldn't attend. 

If you are still within the planning stages, then please please reconsider, ending this wonderful session. I'm sad to think that this might be the end of my journey with the Children's centre.
