Welcome to our Play Farm:) I’m JJ and I can’t wait to tell you all about Jolly John’s…

You can use this site to explore and find out all about the Play Farm. All sorts of things happen here… and people of all ages enjoy learning through play and activities in the great outdoors!

There’s lots to do if you want to join in – we do gardening, growing, making things, learning courses, cookery, clubs and so much more. Some people just like to pop in for a coffee and a chat, or even a time on their own to relax and get away from it all. Whoever you are, however you feel and whatever you like doing – you are welcome here.

Our Play Farm Values

When you visit us you will find that we are located within the grounds of St John’s C of E Primary School. In fact Jolly John’s Play Farm works in total partnership with our School and together we work in harmony ensuring that children, young people, families, individuals, plants, animals and vegetables can flourish all together! We love our School and we love the School values so much that we decided to make them the Play Farm values as well. I’ve learnt them off by heart now – can you? Here goes!

Love, Trust, Respect, Resilience, Courage, Cooperation

Coming soon – Jolly John’s Summer Project
Last year 68 young people did acts of kindness in our community. This year we will be inviting our whole community to get involved…. more details to be posted later this month!

Bring Me Sunshine
Jolly John’s has launched a new project called ‘Bring Me Sunshine’ in partnership with the LinkUp project lead by the Community Links team at St John’s C of E Primary School. We are bringing some sunshine to our community through gardening and planting. So far 300 packs containing compost and sunflower seeds have been delivered to local families and elderly residents.

Saturday Sunshines – these will be back once lockdown restrictions are lifted.

Come on down to JJs on the following Saturdays. All ages, families and individuals welcome.
