The Carsphairn children’s group, Bairn Banter have had a very productive and hands on learning experience focusing on producing their own food for free.

Families from across the Glenkens and beyond continue to come together and join in the fun filled sessions provided by Bairn Banter in Carsphairn.

Children of Carsphairn and the wider Glenkens enjoyed an egg-citing Easter fun day in Carsphairn on Saturday 30th March.

A newly-registered childminder is up and running and set to welcome the first children into her business in the Glenkens thanks to an innovative campaign to recruit new childminders in rural areas.

There is lots on this summer; here is a brief round-up of what’s on in the area.

The ‘Go Wild’ experiences are five-day outdoor summer camps, teaching young people that the great outdoors is accessible to them, often free and lots of fun.

The Scottish Childminding Association is leading a recruitment drive to train and support new childminders in Glenkens communities.

Local Glenkens children’s group Bairn Banter, along with Carsphairn Heritage Centre, organised an egg-cellent fun-filled weekend of free Easter-themed activities.
