Super hero Fundraiser

We are having a Superhero dress up day on Friday 13th May to raise funds for our new nursery garden and to raise money for MFR Cash for Kids, supporting and benefitting local kids. The children are invited to dress up in a Superhero outfit, or any outfit they choose, as this is also a request from the nursery pupil council to have a whole nursery dress up day!

After nursery, the doors will be opened slightly early to allow parents to collect their children and browse the various stalls on offer with sale items and raffles.

We are looking forward to a fun day!

Our visit to the school with our buddies

On Friday 4th March our buddies walked down to nursery to join us in walking back up to school for assembly. This is our first visit to the school with our buddies as part of our transition. It was very exciting. We walked really well up to the school and sat down in the hall with all the other school children and listened to the assembly. It was about World Book Day and we got to hear about book characters and favourite stories and we sang a song. Then the grown ups came to collect us and some of them got to meet our buddies which was really nice.
