📚 We’ve been busy! We have given hundreds of books to Kids4School so they can use them in schools in Tanzania. They are hoping to open a new school there in the next year and who knows, some of the books we have donated may end up being used there!

The children had so much fun digging up carrots from the garden today and they had even more fun eating them for snack! It is lovely to see them learning where their food comes from and enjoying the rewards of their hard work. 🥕🌱

Our Nursery children have been exploring rainbows and getting creative with lots of colourful drawings. The children made rainbows of all different shapes and sizes! 🌈 🎨
