Last week, the children in nursery have really engaged in our Easter Activities. We had plenty of mark making activities where the children could decorate their own Easter egg to take home on their Easter Cards. They also really enjoyed exploring the texture of the Gelly Baff, hiding and finding the Easter eggs inside. We have had sorting activities where the children have sorted their Easter eggs into colours. The children got to take part in an Easter egg hunt, looking for the coloured Easter eggs around the garden and collecting them. They have all had a lovely week, full of spring colours🐣🍫🐑🌷 ...

We would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you for all the support you have given F over the years.  He has had a wonderful time and he has made some lovely friendships. The Leaver’s Assembly today was just super, the children were all so engaged and happy – a real joy to see.  It was lovely to see F on the stage.  I can appreciate all the hours it took to produce a performance like that and it was a real pleasure to watch.

It is not very often I am touched, but I have to say, the thought and warmth that has gone into H’s final days with you has overwhelmed me… I have never known such above and beyond commitment from a school…thank you from the bottom of my heart.

C has settled in well to Room 1 and enjoys attending pre-school.  Staff make every effort to make C’s time there special and he has come home with certificates with his favourite superheroes which  was a lovely touch.  I feel that staff know C well and have been great helping him with his development and things like potty training.
