🌿 Thursday Go Wild sessions
🪴 Gardening
🧁 Baking
🎨 Arts & crafts
✨ And plenty more!

And while the school books might have been put away for the summer, the learning certainly didn’t stop! 📚

Our activities give children the opportunity to learn new skills, get creative, explore the world around them and build confidence! 🙌

Over the last six weeks, we’ve been busy serving up breakfast at our FREE Breakfast Clubs at Old Park Primary School and Dawley Town Hall, and what a summer it’s been!

A huge thank you to everyone who has joined us over the summer. We hope the Breakfast Clubs have helped families during the school holidays while giving children a tasty start to the day. 🥣🍞🍎
