SCORES of children, many of whom live in the Tadley area, celebrated ‘graduating’ from their nursery.

Children from the Jubilee Day Nursery and Jubilee Gems Nursery in Padworth enjoyed a celebration of their graduation from the nursery on Saturday, 14 July.

The nurseries created a special day for families and dedicated practitioners many of whom have helped care for the group since they were babies.

A graduation ceremony, complete with caps, gowns, official photographs and goodie bags for the children was followed by a celebratory picnic and fun day with a wide variety of stalls, activities and a circus skills entertainer.

Senior nursery manager at Jubilee Day Nursery and Jubilee Gems Nursery, Lesley Thompson, said: “The earliest years of a child’s life are some of the most important and the most precious. We hope, alongside parents, we have provided some truly unique, magical moments and memories during the time we have had the privilege of caring for the children.

“They leave us as confident and independent young learners and are very well prepared for the next stage of their lifelong learning journey. We will miss them immensely.”
