Mine are in the older session (8-15) and we didn't start till a couple of years ago, so can't tell you much about the small ones, I'm afraid. Do they keep those going through the winter? Obv at 4 Imogen's still a way from the older sessions, but there are definitely younger kids in there (certainly 7 yr olds) - depends on size a lot. (There was a hysterically small kid spinning round a couple of weeks back - had all the energy but the ratio was so tiny he was barely moving).
Over the summer, for the first time since we've been going, there were a couple of weeks when people were being turned away it got so busy, which is great to see (if a bit manic on the track). Back to being a little quieter now. I drag mine along through the winter too (while I read the paper and have a coffee/bacon sarnie).
