🌈 We’re Teaming Up with The Rainbow Trust! 🌈

We’re thrilled to announce that The Old Station Nursery Group have partnered with the wonderful Rainbow Trust Children's Charity! 💖✨

We believe in the power of community and the importance of supporting families in need. That’s why we’re excited to work alongside The Rainbow Trust to help provide emotional and practical support to families who have a child with a life-threatening or terminal illness.

Alongside our continued support for our local charities, we’ll also be hosting some fundraising events for this incredible charity. Stay tuned for more details! 🎉

Thank you to our community for your continued support of our nursery and for helping us make a positive impact in the lives of children and families who need it most. 💖

🧑🏻‍🍳 Little chefs, big adventures! 🍴

🥕 At our nursery, every child can explore, create, and learn in the kitchen! From mixing and measuring to tasting and teamwork, our weekly cookery classes teach children the joy of home-cooked meals and a love for delicious food while supporting well-being and health. 🍎

🥣 Learning to cook at a young age is both fun and educational. It builds basic math skills (like counting eggs or measuring water) and sparks curiosity about scientific concepts (like how baking powder makes bread rise!). 🍞

To discover more about our hands-on cooking experiences and how we’re fostering healthy habits that last a lifetime, click here 👉 https://tosngroup.co/cookery-enhancement

25/02/2025

From September 2025, all eligible working parents of children aged 9 months up to 3-years-old can receive 3 full days of childcare at a similar cost to 2 full days.

Please speak to your nursery manager who will be able to provide pricing specific to your family and details on enhancements and activities across each day and confirm available spaces.
