About the event
Our weekly Stay and Play sessions provide indoor and outdoor creative play for local pre-school children and their carers. Developed in partnership with Sure Start outreach workers and artist Naomi Kendrick, these sessions use creative play to develop socialisation, speech and language skills and emotional resilience in young children. They provide parents and carers with the opportunity to socialise and form new supportive friendships while taking part in activities that encourage attachment and bonding with their children.
What started as a response to the Covid pandemic and its developmental impact on young children, is now a popular cornerstone of Platt Hall’s programme, and a great place to meet other young families from the area. The historic building and community garden provides a unique sensory environment for young children to explore, and a safe space to get messy with paints, water and other materials.
