THE LAST DAY OF THE ACADEMIC YEAR IS HERE! Wishing all our preschool leavers lots of fun on their last ever day at preschool.🥹

Today the children had a fabulous time playing with the ice cream dough. The pretend ice cream looked incredibly realistic and felt so soft, a wonderful sensory experience. Ordering, serving, scooping and sprinkling!🍦🍨

🎉On Monday the children enjoyed a special Leavers Celebration Snack 🎉

Only 3 days left of preschool for our leavers!🥹
We’re cherishing every moment with our fantastic preschoolers~ the giggles, the hugs, the milestones. Let’s make the most of our time by making more wonderful memories! 💜

This term has gone so quickly and the last day of term is approaching fast! Just a reminder that we close on Thursday 16th July at 3pm for the summer holidays and we will reopen on Thursday 3rd September.

📢 Naval Annual Drumhead Service – Sunday 12th July 🇬🇧

We are pleased to be hosting the Naval Annual Drumhead Service on Sunday 12th July, with our facilities being used for this important event.

Please be aware that there will be a rolling roadblock at approximately 2:30pm while the cadets and naval veterans parade through our car park, along Castle Road, and then return through the gate onto the field.

The organisers would be delighted to welcome members of the public to watch the parade, and a designated spectator area will be available.

We are also honoured that the Mayor will be in attendance.

We look forward to supporting this special occasion and hope to see you there. 🇬🇧⚓
