October was a busy month, flashing by before our eyes! The children have enjoyed Autumn activities, collecting conkers, fir cones, fallen leaves and using these materials to play with, paint with and create those master pieces.

Halloween was celebrated... we carved pumpkins, cooked with pumpkins and of course dressed up in our spooky costumes for our party! We enjoyed dancing the monster mash, apple bobbed, played trick or treat and went home with a special sweet treat.

Diwali the festival of light was celebrated and we had a guest visitor wearing traditional clothing where she explained to the children what Diwali was... they shared some traditional dancing, authentic food and went home with a special gift called a Diya (a gift of light) to remind people that good always wins over evil.

We have lots planned for the upcoming month so get your diaries at the ready!

We would also like to take this opportunity to Welcome Carly to the management team.

She has many years of experience of working with children and has already proven to be very popular with the children!
