Growing Minds
Children aged 0-5
The Growing Minds project is delivered in partnership with The Berin Centre, Peeple and Home-Start Oxford. Our aim is to help children in Berinsfield and Littlemore to thrive, learn, and to join school feeling ready and prepared to succeed. We do this by offering free books, groups, and support:
Imagination Library
Every child within Berinsfield born on or after the 1st of January 2018 can sign up to receive a free book every month until they turn 5, as part of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. These are delivered to you at home, to enjoy together.
