❤ Week 6 Round‑Up. And That’s a Wrap… Well, Almost! ❤

Week 6 brought our summer delivery to a brilliant close, or at least to what should have been the close! Across our final scheduled week, we offered 225 spaces, made possible through a mix of funded sessions (with huge thanks to the Bring it on Brum HAF programme and National Lottery Community Fund) alongside several community‑based opportunities that helped us finish strong.

We’ve learnt some fantastic new skills, from designing our own t‑shirts and caps, to making jewellery, and personalising canvas bags and pencil cases. Creativity has definitely been the theme of the week!

Energy levels were high too, with an interactive games session and an exclusive soft play takeover giving everyone a chance to run, jump, climb and play lots of football!

And water… well, water featured in more ways than one! We enjoyed two swimming sessions, took a jaunt up the canal aboard narrowboat Cecilia where we experienced rain and sunshine. Heavy rain and storms meant our outdoor forest school session had to be cancelled but thankfully not lost. It’s been rescheduled for tomorrow, which now becomes our new final summer delivery date.

A very special thank you to Maple House School who have welcomed us so warmly and allowed us to run so many of our sessions at their site this summer and beyond. Their support, flexibility and kindness make a huge difference to our families and to the success of our programme.

A huge thank you to every child, parent, carer, volunteer and partner who joined us throughout Week 6 and across the whole summer. We've had an absolute blast! 😍

As we start a new term, we want every parent and carer to know one thing: you’re not doing this alone.

For many of our children, going back to school isn’t just “returning to lessons”. It’s a whole new set of demands — new routines, new expectations, new sensory loads, new social landscapes and lots of anxiety. Even familiar things can feel unfamiliar after a break. And that’s why this time of year can feel bigger, heavier, and more emotional than people realise.

💜 This is the rollercoaster — and we ride it together

There will be climbs, dips, twists and turns. Some days will feel smooth, others will feel overwhelming. That’s normal. That’s expected. And that’s why our partnership with you matters so much. We are here for you all.

💪 You do the push. We’ll do the pull.

You help your child get to the gate, out of the car, into the routine.

We take it from there — with structure, predictability, kindness, and the adjustments that help them settle, regulate and succeed.

🧠 Small things make a big difference

Clear instructions.
A familiar face to welcome.
A quieter arrival and time to regulate.
A predictable first lesson to prepare.
Support before overwhelm, not after.
Reduced demand, relationships first and a couple of days to remember our routines and expectations.

These aren’t “extras”. They’re part of how we help children feel safe enough to learn, confident enough to try, and supported enough to grow.

🌈 Your child is not expected to manage everything alone. And neither are you.

We’re here to listen, to adapt, to share what we see, and to work with you so your child has the best possible start to the term.

The rollercoaster is real — but it’s also full of joy, progress, pride and moments that remind us why we do this.

Let’s ride it together 💜
