I scream, you scream, we all scream for...Ice Cream! What a treat yesterday, a visit from Robinson's Ice Cream Van!

Screens are now part of everyday family life, but for very young children, clear and predictable boundaries can help screen time feel calm rather than constant.

Our latest guide shares practical advice for families, nurseries and early years settings on supporting healthier digital habits for under-fives.

The guide covers:
• Choosing age-appropriate content
• Protecting bedtime routines
• Keeping devices in shared spaces
• Co-viewing and talking about what children see
• Using simple scripts and transition warnings
• Modelling balanced device use as adults

With supportive tips and realistic routines, this guide helps adults manage screen time with greater confidence.

We have been working hard in the nursery garden. We planted an apple tree and watered all the vegetables. We were able to pick some of our green beans and Chef John has cooked them for our tea! The purple cauliflowers and the tomato plants are coming on a treat too!

Children, staff and parents had a great day out at Blackpool Zoo yesterday, for the Pre-School end of year trip.

The face you make knowing it's going to hit 31 degrees tomorrow, but your nursery has air conditioning in every room!

We are looking for Early Years Apprentices to join our team!

More mud kitchen fun. Pre-School have loved spending time outdoors, getting messy!

Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud! Ladybirds have had so much fun in the mud kitchen today. They've jumped in muddy puddles, made magic potions, hid under the willow archway and enjoyed time together. 🥰
