You can also use the same link to book a place at the National Play Day event on 7 August in Rodney Parade.

Between 11am and 3pm there will be free activities all day. Those attending can also get free transport on Newport Bus to the event by showing their Eventbrite ticket to the driver.

There’s lots going on in our libraries too. Children can take part in the summer reading challenge which has the theme “marvellous makers” this year. Just pop into your local library to find out more.
