Ascott Pre-School

Thanks so much to everyone who came to and supported the Craft Morning that we held on Saturday. A lovely, relaxed morning with coffee, cake and bacon rolls all round! Lots of lovely crafts for the children to enjoy too! A total of £114.14 was raised which will go towards some nice new equipment for […]

It was the children’s first time on the minibus, so excitement was definitely in the air! The weather was beautiful…even tropical for this time of year. Once in Leafield village, Lisa noticed another minibus, the sign read ‘Railway children’ so after very many years of visiting Leafield Community Woods we were going to be sharing […]

The wedding ceremony was officiated […]

The bluebells are in full bloom at the Forest School site and just about to go over now. We noticed that there are a few white ones and were looking out for them. We also saw lots of dandelions, nettles and greater stitchwort. We talked about looking for Dock leaves when we get stung by […]
