Story and Play

Families with young children can take part in new weekly sessions designed to build confidence, resilience and creativity ahead of starting school.

The sessions are aimed at children aged 2 to 3 and provide a welcoming space to share thoughts and feelings, develop social skills and explore learning through imaginative activities.

Activities include storytelling, songs, games and drawing to help children feel more comfortable about new experiences such as starting school.

Sessions take place every Thursday from 3.30pm to 4.30pm, from 11 June to 16 July, at Westfield Family Hub.
