Breakfast with grand parents
Twice a year we have a breakfast with Grandparents week (or other family relative) you are invited to book a slot for the family member to visit your child at Pre School. At this event your child will show their relative around, introduce them to their friends and grown ups, take part in an activity and eat breakfast with them.
Sports day
Our annual sports day event takes place n July.
We believe that children should learn challenges and feel that it is good to be competitive. However, we remember that Pre School children are very young and we don’t want to put too much pressure on them so we try to balance this out. Our sports day consists of stations of games using equipment for children to take part in with their parents and staff. After completing all the stations, the children take part in planned races. Winners of the races receive medals. All children taking part in sports day receive a certificate at the presentation which is followed by picnic n the park.
