Stepping Stones

⭐️ Deputy Manager Position Available ⭐️

We are absolutely thrilled, and deeply moved, to announce that together, our nursery community has raised an amazing £869.25 for Brian House Children’s Hospice!
This incredible sum was raised during our recent Teddy Bears Picnic, held in memory of Jessica.
A massive thank you to all our fantastic children, parents and staff who brought along their favourite teddies, ate our delicious picnic and donated so generously. Every single penny will go towards supporting the vital, caring work Brian House provides to local children and their families.

On Friday our nursery garden was filled with sunshine, smiles and plenty of furry friends, all coming together for a very special cause. We held our Teddy Bears Picnic in aid of the incredible Brian House Children’s Hospice and most importantly, in memory of Jessica.
Earlier in the week we had a very special surprise guest.. the official Brian House Teddy Bear! The children were thrilled to get high fives from the pink teddy.
We would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who donated so generously to this amazing cause.

A massive thank you to BalloonsbyBeth for our amazing balloon arch. It made the perfect backdrop for our graduation!

What an absolutely magical and incredibly emotional evening we had on Friday celebrating our wonderful nursery graduates. The amazing slideshow which took us on a trip down memory lane, showed what fantastic friends the children had made and the many wonderful opportunities they have had to grow into the capable and confident children that are now so ready to go to school. Thank you to all the parents and grandparents for all your support over the years. We will miss this special Class of 2026. It has been a privilege to teach and care for you all.

We are looking forward to Graduation this evening for our pre-school children. It is always a lovely evening of shared excitement and beautiful memories 👩‍🎓 👨‍🎓
