The Springfield Project

The Springfield Project The Springfield Project is a safe and welcoming space where people from diverse backgrounds from our community can meet together and receive support.

The Springfield Project developed from St Christopher's Church's vision for supporting families in the local area and wishing to share God's love in our community. We work in partnership with Birmingham City Council to deliver children's centre services providing activities and support for families with children under 5. We also have a social housing project called Raising the Roof which houses si

x local families. We run an Opening Doors programme which supports local people back in to work, and helps them with learning English as well. Additionally we are developing The Springfield Neighbour Scheme to support the wellbeing of local people, in partnership with local GPs. The Springfield Project's strapline "God's love in our Community" is achieved through our aims:

* To provide relevant community services to families and children in Springfield.
* To provide a community focus; open, welcoming and accepting of everyone.
* To cross social and cultural barriers engaging this diverse community.
* To promote understanding and the common good in our community.
* To support family relationships.

✨ Highlights from our School Readiness Stay and Play session last week!

10th – 14th June: Healthy Eating Workshop 🍎🥕🍌

With the recent Department for Education Early Years Nutrition Guidance, there has never been a better time to focus on the importance of healthy eating with our children and families.

At our School Readiness Stay and Play sessions, we linked in all of the nutrition characters, including Fay Five a Day, Mickey Me Size, and 2 Snacks Max. Families explored the different food groups and learned about the important role they play in helping to keep our bodies healthy and strong.
The children enjoyed talking about healthy foods, sorting foods into groups, and learning how making healthy choices can help them grow, stay active, and feel their best. 🍓🥦🥛

✨ Let’s take a look at our Startwell session from last week!
Startwell

While the parents joined our Home Safety Workshop, the children were busy exploring, creating, and learning new skills.

We talked about keeping those "belly buttons moving" some children were navigating the small tricycles and chasing their peers through the tunnels.

Building blocks and playdough creations were everywhere. We saw massive improvements in the children pouring their own drinks, and some of our newest friends even practiced chopping fruit with a knife!

Home Safety/Water safety Workshop 🏡🧸at our School Readiness Stay and Play session Startwell

Families took part in a Home Safety Workshop focused on helping children stay safe while learning through play.
Our younger children explored a variety of sensory and interactive activities, while the older children enjoyed taking part in an obstacle course to support their physical development, balance, and coordination.

Families also took our Startwell characters around the different activities and environments, encouraging discussions about safe play and making healthy choices at home and outdoors.
Parents were provided with key home safety messages and useful handouts to continue promoting healthy habits at home. 🍎

😊 Here are some highlights from our Startwell Play and Stay session! ✨ Startwell

In our Startwell Stay and play session the under-2s dove into a wonderful exploratory experience with some jelly play. We love providing these messy activities. The little ones had a blast emptying, pouring, and squishing.

Meanwhile, our older children were busy mastering their fine motor skills—cutting and chopping fruit in our role-play kitchen, and using different utensils to shape and mold playdough. We also had some great chats with parents about the Startwell Character
