A weekly outdoor stay and play session for under 7s and their caregivers with a range of activities, lots of space to have fun safely and share stories in the haven of Boundary Way Community Garden. 

There are also seasonal weekend Family Nature Play at Boundary Way for the opportunity for you to come and share the joys of exploring the world around us with your friends and families!

NEW! As part of our Play for All Project, you can join us monthly for Relaxed Nature Play sessions at Gatis Community Space, suitable for under 7s and neurodivergent children thanks to King Charles III Charitable Fund.

Come along for:

• a friendly space for you to be amongst other parents, grandparents and caregivers

 We had so much fun today exploring outdoors. The mud kitchen was very messy and great for little imaginations to blossom. We loved exploring the plants and leaves with the microscopes to see what we could see. The wooden building area was a hit with my little boy as well. Thank you for a lovely afternoon."
