National Lacrosse Championships 2025

Success at the National Lacrosse Championships We were thrilled to...

The children in Nursery had a bug-tastic time at their Bug Ball last week! 🐜🐝🐛

Our brilliant Early Years team really pulled out all the stops for a day that was crawling with fun. From bug-hunting in the sand and finger-painting insects, to spotting spots on ladybirds and getting stuck into all kinds of messy play — the children loved every moment.

The little explorers also headed into Forest School for a bug hunt before enjoying their very own ‘Bug Ball’ picnic tea. They even made their own mini beasts out of play dough!

A huge thank you to our incredible Nursery staff who hosted a day that was truly the bee’s knees.
