![]() The macaroni cheese came with garlic bread (option for salad too) and they also have Annabel Karmel meals. The other has a couple of small play houses and ride in cars. One is a smaller size soft play frame with a couple of levels to move around. There’s a max of 10 children allowed on at any time but we found there were no queues even on a busy day.įor the younger visitors, they have a couple of dedicated under 5 areas. The bouncy castle is also a great addition which you don’t get at every soft play centre. ![]() Next to the play frame, they also have a sports area, set up like a mini football pitch with plenty of balls to kick around. The levels are pretty visible from the outside which meant I didn’t have to follow them through. They chased each other through the levels, jumped into the large ball pit, flew down several slides and fired cannons. The giant, multi storey play frame was perfect for my kids to run off their energy. It was busy, as you would expect but not too wild. Steeling myself for the inevitable madness that busy soft play centres have on these kind of days, I was surprised and relieved that I was able to find myself a table.

Would have to be rented for these services if Red Kite closes – in Thame and Chinnor Health Visitor clinics, physiotherapy and speech and language therapy sessions all take place in the Red Kite Children’s Centre.

One of the speakers at this afternoon’s Cabinet meeting was Mary Stiles, speaking in her capacity as Chair of the Advisory Group of the Red Kite Children’s Centre in Thame, and Chinnor and Thame Town Council’s Parish Transport Representative. There were several calls for Tory Cabinet members to resign. The proposed budget cuts include slashing bus subsides and closing Childrens’ Centres throughout the county, expected to include Thame’s Red Kite Centre.ĭuring the meeting, placards were waved and there were cheers and applause after every speaker against the cuts that would affect those they viewed as vulnerable. DESPITE a mass protest outside county hall this afternoon, against £69m of cuts from the County Council’s budget, as well as impassioned speeches from several members of the public inside the building and four addresses from County Councillors, at the end of an hour-long discussion, OCC’s Cabinet voted unanimously to recommend the proposed budget to the full council on February 16.
