A big thank you to all the families who attended our fantastic International Evening this week. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed food from the many different cultures that make up THNS. Children and parents were encouraged to join in with African drumming courtesy of Mr Smith from Beulah Infants School. It was amazing to see so many of you dressed in traditional clothes from countries around the world. Please check out photos from this event on our ‘galleries’ page.

We would like to thank all the parents who attended our first Gardening Club session of this year – we had a great turn out! Together everyone worked really hard to clear away the old plants, weeds and canes from last year and prepare the soil for planting. We are hoping to sew some winter vegetable seeds soon.

We were very pleased to see such a good attendance for our first ever ‘Parent Information Meeting’ held by our Lead Teacher Melanie. She talked to the parents about how we work with your children to extend on their own interests and incorporate them into our planning. She also discussed some of the nursery’s routines and the importance of encouraging your children to become as independent as possible. We had some lovely feedback from parents who attended: “I enjoyed all the information that was given, it was very detailed and straight forward, allowing us as parents to understand more what our children get up to.” “I enjoyed learning how children’s behaviour is managed as this is the bedrock of a child’s development and learning.” “I most enjoyed staff attitudes and visible passion for children’s growth and development.” Thank you to all parents who attended this very interesting meeting.

Today our lovely families took part in our MacMillan charity event. They enjoyed having a hot drink and slice of cake whilst making new friends. Altogether we raised over £110 for this really worthwhile cause!! Thanks to everyone who donated.

We have had a very busy start to the academic year at THNS! Our children have happily returned to nursery and we are pleased to welcome over 50 new children and their families to our school, who will be settling in over the coming weeks. This week our children have been interested in dinosaurs and their habitats. Please watch this space for our upcoming THNS newsletter, which will be packed of diary dates for the upcoming term ahead.

We’ve had a great year at THNS and celebrated today with our end of year family picnic. Good luck to our children who are leaving us to start primary school this September. Please have a look at the photos on our ‘galleries’ page. Thank you to all of the staff, children and families who make THNS such a special and unique school. We’d like to wish everyone a happy and safe summer break and look forward to welcoming everyone back on 5th September.

Children and families from THNS were invited to The Brit School ‘Little People’s Day’ this week, where they had a fantastic time watching performances by Brit students. We even had fun on a bouncy castle! Thanks to The Brit School for offering us tickets to this great event.
