What a fantastic time at Barrow Short Breaks! 💙

We’ve been busy getting active, creative and having lots of fun with friends!

From practising our balancing skills and supporting each other in the hall 🤝, to getting outside for some fresh air and chalk creations 🎨⭐, and even enjoying some hands-on sensory play with dough — it’s been a week full of smiles, confidence building and teamwork!

It’s wonderful to see everyone trying new activities, supporting one another and shining in their own way 🌟
