PEOPLE AND PLACES

Nursery nurse MBE

Diane Warrick has been awarded an MBE in the Queen's New Year's Honourslist for her services to early years education. Ms Warrick, a nurserynurse at Millbank Primary School in Pimlico, London, has been workingwith children since 1970. Ms Warrick said, 'I was absolutely shocked - Ifeel very privileged. I've enjoyed seeing children develop, even fromage three to five. It's amazing how they arrive as little toddlers andbecome independent learners, ready to move into Year One.'
