Some of the children enjoyed a lovely visit to <strong>Netherlee Pavilion Library<\/strong>, where they explored new stories and shared their love of books. Our walk to the local shops helped build confidence and road safety awareness, and the children were very proud to post letters to different companies asking for support in improving our outdoor space with donated gardening supplies and new planters. We also had a wonderful trip to <strong>Linn Park<\/strong>, where we explored the wonder of nature, spotting early signs of spring and listening carefully to the birds.
