Yesterday afternoon we celebrated the end of the school year and our leavers moving onto school with a wonderful graduation ceremony and party 🥳

We enjoyed lots of celebrations marking the end of our leavers preschool journey, Tiby Kidz music and movement and enjoyed treats plus Bella’s Gelato Icecream! ☺️

We wish all our leavers the very best for their new adventures at school and everyone a happy summer holiday! ☀️😎

We look forward to welcoming our returnees and new starters back in September.

Here are the term dates for the 2026/2027 academic year.

The grey areas are when preschool is closed due to school and bank holidays.

The pink boxes are INSET days where preschool will be closed to the children.

The first day back after the summer holidays for our children will be Thursday 3rd September 2026.

Today has been a day full of water in our garden 💦🌊💧

We have had a big splash park area where the children splashed and explored the water enjoying a cool down! 😎

Big bubbles were made with a hoop and the children were amazed that they would reach over their heads! 🫧🫧 They even had a go at making them themselves! 🫧

We are making the most of the lovely weather in our shaded gardens whilst it lasts 😎☀️

Twiggs are very proud to announce we are now a Thrive setting! 🥳🎊🎉

The Thrive Approach supports children and young people’s social and emotional development. It helps adults to understand and respond to pupils’ needs, so they feel safe, supported and ready to learn.

Below is our new badge and information on the approach benefits.

This week we have really been enjoying our lovely big preschool garden! 🌿🌱

There has been challenging obstacle courses tackled, lots of varied water play, different opportunities to mark make and transport fun in the sand and stones areas.

We look forward to so much more for the rest of the week! ☺️

Today our children have enjoyed cooling off in our fabulous big water area in the garden! 💦🌊💧

They have had lots of sensory rich fun splashing, pouring, floating and sinking objects on a large scale with their friends! 💦

They practiced their independent skills by helping to dry themselves off and change into dry clothes after ☺️

We look forward to doing lots more of these activities during this very hot week 🥵🔥

Football fever has arrived at Twiggs ⚽️ 🥳

Our children are really enjoying our new football goals and footballs and have been super busy practicing their skills today! 💪🏻

Flags have also been flown and we have been talking about the country flags flying in our garden.

We are looking forward to lots more fun in the garden over the next few weeks! 🥳

Today our children have been super busy in the allotment! 🌱🍃🪴

The weather has been kind enough to water the plants for us so the children checked on the growth of our plants and flowers ☺️ They found out that the lettuces 🥬 will be ready to be picked next week and the lavender has grown and smells amazing! The poppy plants are so tall! 🌺

Sunflowers 🌻 and tomatoes 🍅 were planted in grow your own pots which showed the children a different way of gardening.

A little frog was spotted enjoying our new little water area 🐸 which was super exciting to see!

Well done everyone our allotment looks amazing and we look forward to using the produce next week and beyond! 🥰
