Graduation Day

21 Jul 2010

17 Acorns children who will be starting school in September enjoyed a ‘graduation’ ceremony, where they received a certificate and book bag from their new school. Parents and the Winsley School reception class attended to support the graduates! Look out for an article in the Wiltshire Times and don’t forget to look at the photo section on our website.

Warleigh Farm Trip

15 Jul 2010

The trip to Warleigh Farm was a great success. The children enjoyed plenty of fresh air and space to run around as well as having a picnic in the barn. They loved feeding and stroking the animals which included goats, lambs, pigs, hens, donkeys and cows. They had fun collecting the eggs and also enjoyed a tractor ride!

Update on Fundraising

07 Jul 2010

Thank you for all your kind support with our fundraising this year. We have managed to raise a total of £1195.00

The money that has been raised this year has been used to purchase new tables and chairs for the children following the move from the village hall, where furniture was shared with the toddler group.

As a result of everyones support with the Sainsburys (over 4000 vouchers received!) and Tescos voucher scheme we also have some excellent new equipment on order.

Our next big target is to raise enough funds for a canopy over the outside decking.
