'The Christmas Factory' Concert - Tuesday cast

Congratulations to all the cast of the Tuesday morning Christmas concert who put on a fantastic performance for our parents. We thought we'd share a few pictures with you of our Tuesday perfomers, Thursday pictures to follow...

Children In Need

Thank you to everyone who helped us to raise a massive £199.66 for Children In Need. The staff and parents baked some scrumptious cakes for our cake sale and the children really went to town with our 'wear something spotty' theme. Pictures to follow...

Autumn Bonanza

Thank you to everyone who attended our Autumn Bonanza Shopping Evening on Wednesday 10th November. The evening was a great success and the entry fee and raffle raised £371 which has gone straight back into the nursery funds. So far we have purchased a big pack of Early Years books for the children and the rest will be spent on toys and equipment. The rest of the evening is purely non-profit making and simply for parents enjoyment (we hope your bank balance wasn't too badly affected!).

Diwali Celebrations

We celebrated the Diwali festival in style at the nursery, with two parents volunteering their time to organise activities for the children. They stencilled Indian symbols, made clay Diva pots, created Rangoli patterns with rice, made Indian coconut sweets and had their hands painted with traditional Mendhi hand decorations. The children also explored dressing up in Indian clothing and the staff enjoyed participating too (as i'm sure you can see from the photos!). A huge thank you to Superna & Mita for planning such a fabulous week for us - we are looking forward to next year's celebrations!

Happy Halloween!

We all had a wonderfully 'spooktastic' day at nursery surrounded by witches, cats, vampires, spiders, bats, devils and goblins to name just a few!

Well done to all the children who made a fantastic effort with their costumes and joined us for a day of fun and exciting activities themed around the spookiest day of the year.

Only 365 days to go until our next Halloween extravaganza...

Five Little Pumpkins Sitting On A Gate Anonymous
Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate, The first one said, "Oh my, it's getting late." The second one said, "But we don't care." The third one said, "I see witches in the air." The fourth one said, "Let's run, and run, and run." The fifth one said, "Get ready for some fun." Then whoosh went the wind, and out went the lights, And five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!

Air Photography 2nd - 4th November

Air Nursery are specialist nursery photographers who like to do things a little differently. They specialise in a very contemporary style of 'High Key' photography to produce great results that parents can be proud of. Parents will receive a choice of five images and can purchase from a wide range of hand-finished photo products, value print packs and high resolution CDs. If you would like your child to have their photo taken with their siblings please let us know and we can arrange this for you. Children who only attend on Monday and Fridays can drop in at any time Tues - Thurs for their photo opportunity!
