House was acquired as the Springboard Project's own Centre in 1994 and, thanks
to the generosity of the "Three Oaks Trust", ownership has recently been signed
over to the Project. The House dates back to the Victorian era and has
therefore needed significant modernisation to meet the needs of the families and
their children who extensively use these facilities. There is a wide variety of
facilities within the Centre designed to provide fun and enjoyment for all children
whatever their ability. See further information below or take the Virtual
Tour.
The
Adventure Room
...is a fully fitted soft-play area with a large ball pool,
trampoline, musical hopscotch pad, and is a great place to use up all that excess
energy or take those first few steps as a toddler. The
Lounge...provides that "home from home" feel with comfy chairs, a piano,
rocking horse and a range of toys and books with drawing pens and paper to while
away the hours and catch up with friends for a chat. The
Sensory Room
...features a glowing ball pool, bubble tubes, optic fibres,
a swinging hammock, soft music and a variety of sensory equipment to relax both
children and adults…especially the youngsters with special needs or sensory impairments.Pudseys
Playroom...our latest addition to the Centre
funded by BBC Children in Need and other partners. This area is located on the
1st Floor where daily arts and craft sessions are organised by our Play Co-ordinator
giving both children and parents an opportunity to discover all the fun and enjoyment
that these opportunities can provide. The
Kitchen
...refurbished this year providing an area for children to have
lunchtime snacks and light refreshments with a fridge, cooker and microwave provided
and a favourite place for "Saturday Club" when our Grasshoppers
children can enjoy cookery. The
Jubilee Leisure Garden
Following a massive facelift in
2002 to mark the Queen's Golden Jubilee and further improvements, the Jubilee
Leisure Garden is fully enclosed, providing a large outdoor area with picnic benches,
swings, slides, a play house, a "seaside" blue play bark area with sandpit and
safe surface centre circle with play logos and hopscotch pad, together with a
new synthetic surface football area.
