We've had a great, busy couple of weeks down at St James!
Lots of baking and decorating, playdough and mask making and the children's favorite "Cheese Ball Face" was an absolute HIT!
Always so much fun to be had at Nippers ๐๐

Hi Nippers families,
We are asking that you keep children home if they are unwell please.
There are some serious illnesses going around at the moment. We have children and staff who have compromised immune systems, and we would like to keep everyone healthy.
Many thanks,
