Lozells Play Days – 22nd & 29th Dec 2011

 

Enjoying making delicious, healthy sandwiches!

 
Lozells Play Days has been set up to provide local children with extra
opportunities to engage in fun and play during the school holidays.
 
The first two sessions took place on the 22nd and 29th of December 2011 at the
Lozells Methodist Centre, and proved to be great fun for all those who attended.
 
Animal Day was super! We decorated animal masks, made our own delicious
sandwiches and played with lots of toys. Sarah, the Animal Lady came in with a
variety of animals which included Albert the tortoise, Cookie the hedgehog and
Tango the snake. Children were able to learn numerous facts about the different
animals and were given the opportunity to physically handle them.
This was an exciting experience for all and for many of the children, it was their
first animal encounter!
 
Lack of snow during the Christmas Holidays did not put us off from having some
winter fun. During the second session, children were able to make and dress their
very own snowman, albeit using paper plates and other bits and pieces!
The session was completed with a messy playdough activity and an indoor
riddle hunt that got the brain cells working!! Stickers and sweets were won by all.
 
Thank you to all those who attended and helped out on the day. Also many thanks
to the local Children’s Centres for allowing us to use their resources.
 
Lozells Play Days is open to all who live in or around the Lozells area. We welcome
children from birth to 12 years.
Dates,times and details of all future sessions and trips will be posted here soon!  
 
       
 
 
 

New Site Manager for Life in Lozells

Its goodbye from me Gillian as I am about to start a new role over in Dudley working for the InterFaith Network there. I have been looking after the site for the Lozells Neighbourhood Forum since April. Technically its been a huge learning curve for me but I have enjoyed the process. Now though I am handing over to Alla who has much more skill and lots of ideas for giving the site a real buzz. Please support him by continuing to comment on the articles. Already we have added some fresh authors from the Forum committee. So as well as continuing to get details of local events and opportunities you should soon be seeing a host of new ideas and opinions. I will be logging on myself often to keep up with developments. A big thank you to Hannah at Chamberlain Forum for her support and training and to Jo at Midland Heart also.
Bye….

Faith Story Telling Event – What a wonderful event

September 28, 2011
7:00 pm

Many thanks to Lozells Central Mosque for welcoming the Lozells Faith Leaders Forum and other visitors last Friday. We enjoyed a very rich time of sharing stories from our holy books and significant events in our lives in the beautiful surroundings of Lozells Central Mosque. Then those of us not used to Asian hospitality were caught out because we were not prepared to be offered food and had eaten. The evening ended with a lovely meal served by the Mosque which gave us time to chat and get to know each other better. A special thank you to Matloob Hussain who arranged everything at the Mosque for this event.

Do you have an opinion about local affairs? Come and express it directly to your councillors at the Handsworth and Lozells Ward Committee

7:00 pmto9:00 pm

The next Lozells and East Handsworth Ward Committee is on Wednesday July 27th at Mayfield School on  Heathfield Rd at 7.00pm, a bit earlier than before. This will be the first meeting with all three councillors in the ward open to you, the public, since the elections in May when there was a change of councillors.  So let me encourage you to go along and see how the new team performs and hold them to account for what the council is doing here in our community.
