Staff at the nursery wanted to surprise Sharon by featuring her in this column. We spoke to manager Jenny Cole.
Why did you want to surprise Sharon?
All of us at the nursery are so proud that Sharon has achieved 25 years' ownership of the nursery, and we know how much she would value being featured in Nursery World. There are many long-serving staff members here who are thankful for the opportunities she has given to us.
