We really enjoyed celebrating World Book Day last Thursday. Everyone enjoyed dressing up and showing us their favourite books.

(See answer below.) The children also had some […]

January 18, 2017
Ilkley Preschool

Has anyone seen our big, yellow banner? It usually hangs outside our pre-school to let everyone know where we are but appears to have flown off in the very windy night, on Tuesday 10th January, and we haven’t seen it since. If it landed in your garden or a patch of land near you, please could you contact us and […]
