Birthday Celebrations for Boing!

An open day at Boing! Soft Play Centre on Saturday 22nd September to celebrate their 1st Birthday provided Connect <> Lockleaze with the perfect opportunity to meet local parents.

Jo Earl with two student volunteers, Jeannette and Joanna, were there to talk about Boing!’s new IT facilities, find out how familiar everyone was with computers and ask what activities they would find of interest.

In keeping with the party mood, Jo had organised T-Shirt printing and this proved incredibly popular – a wonderfully demonstrable example of what technology can do!

Boing! have been a keen advocate of Connect <> Lockleaze to date – full of enthusiasm and ideas with a tight knit group of supporters keen to spread the word.

We look forward to developing a great set of courses and sessions with them.

A bit about Boing!

Having taken on the lease of the Blake Centre, Lockleaze Primary School & Early Years Centre (LPSEYC) has transformed it into ‘Boing!’ - a community multi-activity and soft play venue for 0-5 year olds and their families.

Boing! consists of a multi-activity play room, containing various sections of ‘messy play’, ‘building’, ‘home corner’ and ‘soft/baby’; a soft play room complete with custom built structure and a cafe area, which will serave refreshments, and where parents can sit and relax whilst their children play within view. Our Stay & Play Groups have relocated to Boing! along with our Childminders Support Group, and local mums have even started a breastfeeding group, the HoneySuckle Cafe.
