Play and Stay Session at Parkfield Children’s Centre – Friday, 21st March 2025

Yesterday marked the first day of spring, and to celebrate the season of new beginnings, we introduced a special growing activity in today’s Play and Stay session. The children had a wonderful time planting tomato, coriander, onion, and lettuce seeds into small pots, learning about how plants grow and the care they need. Baby plants will transfer to a garden, where our little gardeners will watch them flourish all the way until September.

Sewing Session at Child’s Hill’s Children Centre – A Wonderful Success!

We are delighted to share that our sewing session at Child’s Hill was a fantastic experience! We had a great turnout, with enthusiastic participation from all attendees. Parents thoroughly enjoyed the entire lesson, learning new skills and gaining confidence in their sewing abilities.

By the end of the session, everyone had created beautiful outfits, showcasing their hard work and creativity. The results were truly impressive, and we are excited to present these wonderful pieces in the pictures.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us – we look forward to more inspiring sessions in the future!
