💚🌿 Green Day Fun! 🌿💚
We had a lovely time celebrating Green Day at nursery! 💚

The children looked fantastic dressed in all shades of green and enjoyed getting creative with a yummy biscuit, practising our spreading technique with the choice of spread before decorating it with a lovely green sweet. 🍪💚

We also wrapped up warm and headed out for a little walk around the village, keeping our eyes peeled for all things green! 🌳🍃 We spotted lots of different shades of green along the way and had lots of fun talking about what we could see.

A lovely day full of learning, exploring, creativity and lots of green! 💚😊

🎓 Preschool Graduation 2026 🎓
Today we celebrated a very special milestone as we said goodbye to our wonderful group of 10 preschoolers. It has been an absolute pleasure watching each and every one of you learn, grow, gain confidence, and make lasting friendships. We are so proud of all that you have achieved and can't wait to see all the amazing things you'll accomplish in the future.

A huge thank you to all of our parents and families for trusting us to be part of your children's early years. It has been a privilege to support them on the start of their learning journey, and we are so grateful for your continued support.

This morning we enjoyed a lovely graduation celebration together, complete with some delicious baked treats, lots of smiles, and special memories to treasure.

To our little graduates, we wish you every success and happiness as you take the next exciting step in your education. Keep shining, keep smiling, and never stop believing in yourselves. We will miss you all! ❤️🎓✨
