We have twinned with Bevois Town pre-school
December 2017
We have been very fortunate to of twinned up with Bevois Town pre-school in Southampton.
At the beginning of November Lesley and Lucy went to visit Bevois Town Pre-school and took with them a book all about West End Pre-school to share with the children.
Today Diane and Clare came to visit us and they too brought with them a book all about their pre-school, the children have really enjoyed looking at it and have asked many questions about the children at Bevois. Town. We were able to tell our children that in January we are going to be able to Skype with the children of Bevois Town. Just the beginning of what we hope to be a strong bond and long relationship with our twinned pre-school.
New Outdoor

We are thrilled to introduce you to our new Mud Kitchen and Outdoor Play Area.

At the end of term, we held a sports day for all of our children going up to school in September 2017.
We had a great time, working in teams to complete activities, including the egg and spoon race, a sack race and an obstacle race.
The children then had a picnic, with a presentation and leaving certificate to congratulate them for their time at the pre-school.
We wish all of our children a happy summer, and the best of luck as their school adventure begins!
