What we do
The playscheme is designed to support children in the local area to play and learn in the presence of others in a safe and child-friendly environment.
It’s all about fun and encouraging the children and young people to learn and develop their skills through playing with others. Many of the activities undertaken encourage learning and creative play.
Each location differs, but we pride ourselves on inspiring children with a mix of activities including:
- Creativity and crafts
- Performing arts
- Team play and puzzles
- Sports
- Outdoor and indoor games
- Dressing up
Winter Holiday Playscheme 2023 review
Last December we had events in Yate, Kingswood, Patchway and Charlton Hayes for seasonal arts, crafts, sports, games and fun. And we served hot food at lunchtime.
Half Term Free Family Drop-In Sessions
We’re planning more free family activity sessions at Patchway / Charlton Hayes, Kingswood and Yate during the February half-term. It’s for the whole family to have some fun, crafts, games and refreshments. Parents or grandparents came with their children and played for any length of time.
Here are some lovely photos of our Halloween family drop-in play sessions from the October 2023 half-term:
“Just a quick note to say how much T & E enjoyed their time at Little Stoke today! T in particular is obsessed with the bloodhound, planes, engines so this made his day :-) ”
“Thank you very much for your hard work. It has been an amazing experience for the children!”
