Happy 50th

Westwards Nursery in Loughborough, Leicestershire, invited parents, children and staff, past and present, to a party to celebrate the setting's 50th anniversary. The special event was also attended by the original owner who opened the nursery in 1961.

Visit by the dentist

Early Years Childcare's Greenwich nursery invited a local dentist and dental nurse to teach the children in the Badgers family room about the importance of good dental hygiene. All the children received certificates and information packs with stickers and other dental hygiene-related goodies.

Toddle for a mile

Busy Bees and Busy Bears Children's Day Nurseries in Durham held a mile-long toddle which was walked by more than 300 families and raised nearly £6,000 for the local children's hospital ward. Nursery children accompanied the staff to present a cheque to the hospital.
