Last session of the summer this coming Tuesday at Stanney Grange Community Centre with the amazing The People’s Pantry Ellesmere Port

We’ll be making plant pot personas and junk modelling Travelling Contraptions - here’s a sneak peak of some of our Travelling Contraptions from yesterday.. A Tractopus (half tractor, half octopus), a Sofmarine (half sofa, half submarine) as well as a gorgeous car and hot air balloon.

Thanks so much for all the support and engagement this summer, it’s always so lovely to see families and young people having so much fun with stories and crafts and world building. 🐻💎🖤

What a lovely morning we have had! We’ve been learning all about the water cycle - we made little gadget rain crafts, you pop the sun up and roll the rain to make it evaporate. Once it’s rolled all the way up, you swap the sun for the cloud and the rain rolls back down!

Then we did some rain-in-a-tub experiments to see if we could make Purple Rain - and it worked!

Massive thanks to Cheshire West and Chester Libraries for having us, and to everyone who came along. Next week we’re thinking about trees!

Woohoo!! Book your places below 🤩🤩🤩

We have special Rhymetimes for the under 5s with Jem Bear every Saturday through August at Ellesmere Port Library, 11-11.30am followed by crafts 11.30am-12.30pm.

Aug 6th - The Water Cycle. Follow the journey of one tiny raindrop, as we learn about the water cycle and answer the age old question: what makes it rain?

Aug 13th - Trees. Did you know trees can communicate? Did you know they intertwine their roots beneath the ground? Did you know trees make really good friends? We'll learn all about this and more, from the tiniest of seeds to the tallest of trees.

Aug 20th - The Night Sky. What makes the skies light up? What causes shadows? What would your personal solar system look like? Come explore the night sky!

Aug 27th - Travelling Contraptions. How do you get to school? Do you walk, drive, get the bus? What if you arrived in a hot air balloon? An on-land boat? A kite that flies you with it? We'll create our own Travelling Contraptions to steer you on future adventures.
