Term 5 - 2021

The children have settled in nicely after the Easter break. We have welcomed some new children and families to our setting and look forward to welcoming Cathryn, our new staff member, on 4th May. The Hungry caterpillar has been a great success, with the children making fruit smoothies and creating their own caterpillars. It has been great having Little Music Stars back to our setting, the children loved singing, dancing and listened really well. Our school leavers cohort enjoyed starting their Forest School sessions, in which they went on a hunt for animals in the woods. What a busy week we have had!!

Term 4 - 2021

This term at Bossingham Preschool, we have welcomed Anita, our new manager . Anita came from Snowflakes Day Nursery, which closed at the end of February.

The children have been busy carrying out lots of activities. They have enjoyed being creative and making sheep, butterflies, trees and flowers for our Spring display. The children have celebrated World book day, making a book mark to take home and planted a flower for Mothers Day. We dressed up bright for Red Nose Day and participated in an egg and spoon race for Easter.
