✨ **Goodbye, Hello & New Beginnings** ✨

As one little chapter comes to an end, another exciting one begins… 💛

To all our school leavers — what a journey it has been! 🌈
You’ve grown, you’ve learned, you’ve laughed, you’ve made friends and created so many special memories along the way.

Now it’s time to spread your wings, step through the next door and begin your Primary school adventure 🎒📚

Goodbye to the days that helped you grow
Hello to the places you’re ready to go
Take all your memories, your laughter and cheer
And carry them with you into the year
New doors will open, new friendships will start
But Little Stars will always hold a piece of your heart

Near or far, wherever you are, you will always be a Little Star ⭐

And while we say goodbye to some very special children, we are also getting ready to say a huge WELCOME to our new Little Stars! 🌟

New friends, new faces, new adventures, new discoveries and lots of opportunities to learn, play and grow together. 🥰

Our new Term Time Autumn Term begins Wednesday 26th August, and we simply cannot wait to welcome everyone back — and meet all of our new starters! 💫

🎓✨ Nursery Graduation 2026 ✨🎓

Today was filled with lots of smiles, happy tears, laughter, and unforgettable memories as we celebrated our wonderful nursery graduates. We are so proud of each and every one of our little stars and all they have achieved during their time with us.

Watching them grow in confidence, build friendships, and prepare for their next adventure has been an absolute privilege. Although it's time for them to spread their wings and fly, they'll always hold a special place in our hearts.

Thank you to all our wonderful families for joining us in our celebrations today, it has been an emotional one 🥹✨

Near or far, you'll always be a little star. ⭐

22/06/2026

Reminder for our families ☀️

With the warm weather expected this week, please ensure your child comes to nursery each day with:

• A named sun hat
• Sun cream already applied before arrival (and a named bottle if you would like us to reapply it)
• A named water bottle
• Spare appropriate clothing

We will be providing cooling activities in shaded outdoor areas and adapting our provision as appropriate to help everyone stay safe, comfortable, and hydrated during the heat.

Thank you for your support. 😎☀️

💙 Happy Father's Day! 💙

Today we celebrate all the amazing dads, stepdads, grandads and father figures who fill our children's lives with love, support, fun and encouragement. Thank you for everything you do – your impact is greater than you know. 💙

We'd also like to give a special shout-out to our very own director Paul! As the only male member of our Little Stars family (so far!), he is such an important part of our nursery and we are incredibly lucky to have him with us! ⭐

Wishing all our wonderful dads and father figures a fantastic Father's Day filled with love, happiness and special memories. Sending lots of love to those today that may be feeling sadness.

🎓✨ Graduation Prep is in Full Swing! ✨🎓

With just 13 sleeps to go until the big day, our Graduation Shop officially opened today! 🥹💛

Our school leavers had the special job of choosing their very own cuddly keepsake to take home on graduation day. While our graduations may have traditional caps and gowns, they are filled with heartfelt touches that make them truly unforgettable...

🌟 A personalised poem written by their Key Person
🌟 A video montage of their adventures at Little Stars
🌟 A graduation medal
🌟 A carefully chosen cuddly friend to take away and treasure forever

These little keepsakes hold so many precious memories of friendships, laughter, learning and growing. 💕

Here's a sneaky peek at some of the cuddly friends waiting to be chosen! 🧸👀

After 13 years of Little Stars graduations, we can't help but wonder... do any of our former Little Stars still have their graduation teddies? Our very first graduates are turning 17 soon! 🤯💫

If you're one of our Little Stars families, we'd love to see photos of your graduation keepsakes in the comments! ❤️
