During the summer, we have plenty of outdoor play in our garden and trips across to the the park. We also have regular teddy bears picnics and barbeques.

We believe that when possible it is great for the children to be outdoors and enjoy the beautiful world around them.

The Summer School has always been very popular and great fun.
