Learn how to protect your eyes whilst watching the partial solar eclipse!

We probably shouldn’t have to say this, but don’t look directly at the sun. Looking directly at the sun without the right protection can cause permanent damage to your eyesight – so you need to take care. Remember, your normal sunglasses may look great, but they won't cut it.

With the summer holidays in full swing, we know that keeping children entertained (and fed!) can soon add up.

We've come across this helpful guide highlighting restaurants, cafés and venues where children can eat free or for just £1 during the 2026 summer holidays, and we thought it was too useful not to share! 💙

Please share with your friends and family!
Wishing all our patients, families and community a happy, healthy and enjoyable summer holiday.

Looky what Miss Wardman won! What a lovely surprise to share. A massive thank you to Muddy Boots Nature Explorers for pulling my name out the basket 🥰 It’s always special when a little bit of good luck comes your way, especially when it’s something that can be shared with others 🍀

I can’t wait to share these with our minis in September when we go back. It will be such a wonderful way to start the new term, and I know they’ll be excited to see them.

Moments like this remind us how thoughtful acts and generous support can make a real difference in pre school life. 🥰🥰
