Here is a lovely comment from one of our current parents, showing how important Busy Bees Pre-school has been to her daughter and the benefits she has seen since she started.
Parent Comment..."Busy Bees Pre-School is such a lovely setting. I knew from the first visit Emily would love it. The Staff are so welcoming, friendly and go above and beyond for every single child. Emily has surely been given the best start to her Educational Journey that her little sister will also hopefully follow in her footsteps. I know Emily will always remember her time at Busy Bees as she is always singing and doing the actions to nursery Rhymes she has learnt and even the stories. I am so thankful for all that Sharon, Mary, Joanna and Seaneen has done to help Emily come out of her shell and gained so much Confidence etc."

Help us to save the Pathway Fund! ππΌ please sign the petition x
It is with a heavy heart that we must inform everyone that the Pathway Fund which has contributed towards 20 of our children's places for the past 4 years is highly likely to cease at the end of June due to budgets cuts and us having no representation from Stormont.
We would be extremely grateful if we could have the support of Current and Past Parents and friends of the Busy Bee's Pre-School Bleary by sending us your stories of how Busy Bees has supported your family/child by posting here or emailing us to [email protected].
Since 2016 the Pathway Fund has supported early years initiatives across NI, helping 54,000 children and 789 projects in the process. This year, the annual budget of around Β£3m was meant to help 287 services, but the proposed removal of funding could result in the loss of 500 jobs - mostly female - and leave 10,000 children without access to these services.
