What makes your nursery "irresistible"? Useful thoughtful presentation by Linda Baston-Pitt at #EYMatters conference Bath Spa University #TeamEarlyChildhood #Wellbeing

Two very important questions asked by Dr Sue Allingham #Birthto5Matters at the #EYTalking conference in Bath Spa University.

Wonderful presentation on #OutdoorPlay by Kathryn Solly at the Early Years Alliance event. This point hit home: Focus not on the word gap - instead on the experience gap. Our role should be to provide fun learning experiences.

Thank you @PACEYchildcare. This was an easy survey to complete so important that practitioners spend 10 minutes to give their views.

Great new Claire Terry programme called JoJo & Gran Gran has just on BBC’s pre-school channel. Based on the popular characters by @IamLauraHenry, this was a great hit with our children! More please - every week! #StLucia #JoJoGranGran

Thank you to RB Health and Safety for organising a really useful #zoom call on “Mental Health Awareness”. Key point is that regular social contact (via technology & NOT in person) is vital compared to relying on apps and technology. #StayAtHomeAndStaySafe

Our artistic nursery children have created their own rainbow to show support for the NHS during this coronavirus crisis. Even at this young age, they know what a wonderful job our NHS nursers, doctors and other front line staff are doing. #NHS #Rainbow #StayHomeStaySafe

Thank you Neil Leitch of Early Years Alliance who was interviewed by Shelagh Fogarty on LBC. Making the point that #EarlyYears are not baby sitters and that the Department for Education must treat this sector fairly. Understand our importance in the education of young children.
