Welcome back all after a lovely Easter Break. We are now approaching a long term where the children will be busy looking at castles, how they were built and who lived there. Modelling clay, paper, paints and all sorts of materials will be used to create our own castles, shields and swords.

For the committee it is a busy fund-raising time too as we will be running 'Teas on the Green' on 22nd May. We hope for good weather and lots of cakes as well as helpers on the day.

Our annual 'Fun Run / Garden Fete' will take place on Saturday 11th June from 2pm to 4pm. We will be having an 'Auction of Promise' with brilliant items to bid for as well as a Raffle, Tombola, Treasure Hunt, Bouncy Castle and more. The Fun Run will take place in the Church Hall and on the Church Green and we are looking forward to seeing you all there.

For a brochure or information about the Nursery please contact either our Supervisor, Jacky Brewer on 246957 or the Admission Secretary, Jo Songhurst on 842250.

Welcome back to Nursery and we hope everyone had a good summer holiday. We are looking forward to all our new children and parents joining us this month and send all those moving on to school our best wishes. It’s a very exciting time.

The autumn term will run from Monday 6th September to Wednesday 15th December with Half term from 25th October to 29th October.

At the Nursery we have had a busy couple of months.

The children were introduced to -Yuko- a Japanese lady, friend to the Nursery Supervisor. Thanks to her the children have studied the Japanese culture, made their own Japanese miniature trees, listened to new stories, copied Japanese writing and learned about the Japanese food and dress code. It was a whole new world for the children and they enjoyed it very much. During this term the children will hear and act out some favourite fairy tales like Jack and the Beanstalk, The Gingerbread Man, Billy Goat Gruff and more.

Children who will be attending school in September have been invited to visit the reception class and meet their teacher in early July.

On Monday 12th July the children will be having a Circus party which will involve learning to juggle, spinning plates, face painting and lots more.

The last day of term will be Tuesday 13th July and we would like to end with a Teddy Bears Picnic on the Church Lawn organised by the Nursery Committee. Parents with children starting at the Nursery this September and the following January are very welcome to attend.

The Nursery Committee has run two events in the last months, Teas on the Green and the Nursery Fun Run / Garden Fete. Both events have been successful in raising money for the Nursery so that new equipment can be purchased. We would like to thank all parents who were able to help out on those days and/or who donated cakes. Also a big Thank You to Mr and Mrs Parker at Lawnswood for letting us use their garden as the venue for the Fun Run.

Our Raffle was very popular and we are grateful to all businesses who donated a raffle prize in order to help the Nursery raise funds. It was a very enjoyable day for parents and children alike.

After discovering the different times of a day we are now looking into healthy eating. The children will be tasting food from all over the world and will be discovering what children in other countries are eating.

On the 3rd March we would like to invite you to a Chocoholics Evening in the Church Hall. Delicious Continental chocolates will be displayed (and may be tried) as well as gift items for all the family. Prices start from as low as 10p and orders will be delivered well in time for Easter.

If you would like to visit the Nursery or receive a prospectus and application form please contact either:-
Jacky Brewer, Supervisor on 246957 or

All our newcomers have started by now and are settling in well. We are having great fun with our day and night theme and the preparation of
various foods that are being served during the day.

We are very proud of our new climbing frame that has arrived in bright colours. The children are very excited about it and have spent a lot of time trying it out. I would like to thank all the volunteers who helped with the removal of the old slide, setting up the new play equipment, delivering and raking out the bark as well as building a new garden gate.

Our next fundraising event will be a Chocoholics party in early March, which was very successful last year, and we are hoping for a lot of interest again this year.

Our topic this term is the different parts of the day - day and night, morning, afternoon and evening - and how time flies when you have fun. We will be looking at various foods for breakfast and lunch and order our favourite toast toppings. Day will become night and we will be holding a pyjama party.
