🌞 Summer Stay & Play Highlights at The Springfield 🌞 Summer Stay & Play Highlights at The Springfield Project last week 🌞 Startwell 

Last week, National Allotments Week, the European Athletics Championships, and National Plum Day gave families lots of opportunities to learn through play.

Children enjoyed growing cress, exploring a harvesting sensory box, completing obstacle courses, and taking part in plum tasting and printing activities. Parents were also introduced to 180 Katie, Fay 5 a Day, 2 Snacks Max, and Sammy Skills to support healthy eating and active play at home.

✨ Roti Reinvented – Zero Waste Cooking Class | 8.0 ✨ Roti Reinvented – Zero Waste Cooking Class | 8.09.26! ✨πŸ₯™

Celebrating Zero Waste Week 2026 – 7th to 11th September! ♻️

Bread and flatbreads are everyday staples, but these products are also among the most wasted foods in UK homes. In fact, we throw away around 960 tonnes of bread every single day!* 🍞

Join us for a fun, hands-on cooking class where we'll give leftover rotis a new lease of life and show just how versatile they can be!

Together we'll be making:
πŸ₯§ Mini quiches – using roti instead of pastry
πŸ§€ Quesadillas – using roti as a tortilla wrap
Plus a sweet treat demo! 🍫

All recipes are family friendly and designed around using up leftovers and scraps, while showing creative ways to use everyday ingredients differently.

You'll pick up practical cooking skills, discover money-saving ideas and learn simple ways to make the most of the food you already have at home.

🌱 £1 to book
πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ All ingredients provided
🀝 Meet local people and learn something new
♻️ Discover creative ways to reduce food waste

πŸ“† Tuesday 8th September
πŸ• 12.30pm–2.30pm
πŸ“ Springfield Project, The Springfield Centre, Springfield Road, Birmingham B13 9NY

This session is part of Building Greener Communities, funded by The National Lottery Community Fund, supporting people across Birmingham to take practical action for a greener, healthier and more sustainable future.
