This month we have been very busy planning and organising our 20th Anniversary celebrations for the 8th May. This month we have sadly said farewell to some of our close friends one who has moved back to Poland – we wish them all the very best, and another who is now attending a school nursery.

We have had to say a very sad farewell to Tom and Jerry our pet Terrapins. Tom and Jerry were growing very quickly and needed a lot of attention that we could not provide for them. Kandie took Tom and Jerry to a pet shop where they have put them in a bigger tank, Kandie stops by to see them both regularly and tells us how happy they are.

In the over two’s room they have been focusing on gardening and Me, Myself and I. In their gardening the children have planted Daffodil bulbs for Marie Curie Cancer research they children have enjoyed watching there daffodils grow, the children have also planted carrot seeds and are patiently waiting for them to start growing.

The children have also been learning about their body parts and senses. The children have all had the opportunity to draw their own portraits in front of a mirror to put on display and are also learning about their family backgrounds.

In the under two’s room the children have been looking at animals. All the children have enjoyed many different kinds of art work on different animals whilst looking at the animals. They have done collage, block printing, string painting and sticking on all their favorite animals. They have also been looking at fruits including many cultural fruits.
