Local nursery running for fun
Staff
at the Kiddi Caru Day Nursery at Langage Business Park, Plympton took part
in the 5k Race 4 Life on Sunday 4th June, the UK’s biggest women only
fund-raising event dressed as bunnies.
The girls raised over £650 which will help fund the life-saving research
of Cancer Research UK. As well as being a fantastic fund-raising event for
a worthy cause the day turned out to be a great team-building exercise.
Freshly hatched at local Day Nursery
Kiddi
Caru Day Nursery based at the Langage Business Park in Plympton have just
hatched their own chicks.
Children of pre-school age at the nursery have been learning about how things grow. As part of the project they have been focussing on how animals grow, in particular, chickens. The children were given their very own egg to look after with an incubator all provided by a local farm. Each day the children were responsible for turning and watering their egg until they hatched in to little fluffy chicks. And the caring did not stop there, once hatched the children have been feeding the little chicks and giving them plenty of cuddles. When the chicks are old enough they will be returned to the farm to roam free.
Tracey Noble, Nursery Manager comments, ‘At Kiddi Caru we have a passionate belief in the benefits of quality nursery provision and the educational development of the children in our care. This has been an excellent experience for the children and a unique learning experience, not only to see how animals grow but for the children to be given the responsibility to care for something.’
Kiddi Caru, Plympton has recently achieved an excellent OfSTED report with health, hygiene and safety receiving outstanding marks.
Happy Birthday Kiddi Caru
Kiddi Caru, Plympton celebrated their 1st Birthday in style.
On Saturday 8th April the staff at Kiddi Caru Day Nursery organised a Birthday Party for all the children and their families. Over 100 people attended, taking part in the Easter Egg Hunt, the Easter Bonnet Parade, relaxing in the garden with their favourite teddy at the Teddy Bears Picnic, and finally watching the start of the Great Balloon Race. Kiddi Caru staff sold over 200 balloons throughout the week as part of the Great Balloon Race to help raise money for World Vision - It is one of the world’s leading relief and development agencies, helping people in over 100 countries in their struggle against poverty.
Nursery Manager, Tracey Noble comments; ‘It was a fantastic day, it was great seeing all the children and their families have so much fun – even the parents joined in with the Easter Bonnet Parade, and thankfully the weather held off for us. I can not wait to see how far the balloons fly, we have a prize for the furthest travelled and for the lucky person who finds the balloon and returns the tag!’. The prize winners will be notified on 3rd July 2006.
