Our Visit to Centrestage's Bus Our Mentor class went to Fullarton (Irvine) today (11 th May 2017), to see the bus. It is a really good idea what they're doing. They have a play area for kids which gives the parents a break to have some food or some time to themselves. The chef made turkey curry and the boys made their own pizza bread, it was delicious! We had a great time experiencing what Centrestage do for people!
