We've been enjoying the sunshine at Wednesday Play over the last few weeks with lots of games in the garden as well as crafts and games indoors.

Come along next Wednesday 3.30pm-4.30pm for more activities! Everyone welcome!

(There is no Monday Explore this week due to the bank holiday. Activities will be on from Tuesday as normal.)



Big thanks to volunteers from Aviva for all their efforts getting the garden ready for playing in!

Lots of Lego this week at The Place! At Monday Explore we learnt about China - we ate noodles and dumplings, had a go at creating Chinese artwork and built the Great Wall of China! We also built our own Lego houses at Wednesday Play and made shrink key rings.
Come along next week for more food, crafts and games!
