Our Graduation Celebration!

This week marked graduation for our school leavers in the preschool room, and what a fantastic performance they put on for all their families! The last few weeks have been filled with lots of practice in preparation for the big day as the children learned their lines and songs. There has also been plenty of excited discussion about the performance and the costumes they would be wearing. Margot said “My Mummy and Daddy bought me a Crocodile costume!” River added “And I am going to be a Lion!” When the big day arrived the children were buzzing with anticipation and loved showing off their outfits and sitting down for their face paint. As their families began to arrive, the children sat with big smiles and waved as the play began. Everybody did a marvellous job with their words and songs before it was time to receive their graduation certificate and starting school book. It was amazing to see such a strong turnout from all who attended and it was lovely to see everyone stay behind to mingle with some food and drinks, and we should like to thank you!

The shows haven’t stopped there however, as the children have continued to recite their lines and sing their songs together as they play, and have even been making a stage with the big wooden blocks in the garden to re-enact their performance. Freddie said “We need a big stage to fit all of our friends!” Esme added one block and said “If I put my block here then I can sit here!” It’s great to see that the children enjoyed their play and we couldn’t be more proud of the show they were able to put on. We wish them all the best of luck as they transition to their schools.
