LangarAid -Helping the homeless in Coventry

20th November 2019

Amazing – 91 items donated, gloves, socks, scarfs and hats. We were blessed to be able to spend a few hours this evening helping out at the homeless shelter. Thank you all for you kind donations they were gratefully received.

Showing children the importance of being kind

Today for children in need we collected for our chosen charity ‘LangarAid’ collecting hats, scarfs and gloves for the homeless in Coventry.

On of our preschool children, knew who the donations were for and asked if we could also feed the homeless toaday. So they made cakes, and took them around the city centre handing them out bringing a big smile to some of the homeless people they met.

Teaching children what is important. Being caring and compassionate. Helping those in need. Bringing smiles to others. Our future generation.

Sharing Bedtime Stories

15th October 2019

Lots of research points to the importance of introducing young children to books and the love of reading. In this short window of their early years reading stories to your child will expand their vocabulary as well as help them develop their imagination, creative thinking and of course the special bond developed with you whilst sharing story time.

To encourage reading at home, we have introduced a ‘home library’ this is located in the downstairs hallway, please visit the trolley as you wish choosing a story to take home. These can be changed as often as you would like, all we ask is that you encourage your child to look after the books and also kindly return your book before selecting another one.
