Please support our local campaign to challenge the threatened closure of Jamboree Play Hut in Finsbury Park and TreeTops extended provision at Stroud Green Primary School/Children's Centre
Jamboree is an invaluable play & support resource for local families with young children, run by fantastic experienced staff & very welcoming to all families from a range of diverse backgrounds. Used by 200+ families per week for what must be very small over heads ( 2 members of staff).
The Play Hut has been open for many years and its closure will be a huge loss & waste of a fantastic space within Finsbury Park.
Tree tops enables parents to go to work by providing affordable quality care for children age 3+ before and after school and during the holidays; also provides essential help & support for families under stress. Workers linked to Jamboree provide this service at the school ensuring continuity of care between services and an wealth of child care & family support experience
The council has provided a feedback form for parents to complete (available at School and Jamboree) which says: ‘please tell us your views on the proposal to close the Treetops and Jamboree provisions from October 2011’
