In July 2012 our Minnows Pre-School put on their End of Term Play to a packed audience of over 140 parents, grandparents and friends.

Our children had a fantastic time performing in front of their appreciative audience.

To celebrate the Diamond Jubilee our children put on a Royal Themed Show.

 

 

This theatrical event was also reported by the Portsmouth Evening News.

Minnows Pre-School Trip to Fishers Farm

Our 2012 Merchistoun Minnows Preschool Summer School Trip was to Fishers Farm.

So first of all – we booked a coach to get us there – a double decker coach.  This coach took us, our children, and all their parents + siblings from Horndean all the way to Wisborough Green which is near Horsham in West Sussex.

Once we had arrived – many of the children (and some of the parents) made a beeline for the bouncy cushions.

The Merry-Go-Round was very popular with our children.

We all had a barrel of fun on the Barrel Bugs ride.

We had a fantastic day out and we’d like to extend our thanks to the lovely people at Fishers Farm for making us feel so welcome.

Our Horndean located Pre-School has their own website located at www.merchistounminnows.co.uk – please do take a look around at the fun that we have and the large range of facilities offered by our Horndean Pre-School.

To avoid disappointment we do recommend that you Contact Us in good time to guarantee your child’s placement as at certain times of the year we may be unable to offer additional placements.

Merchistoun Minnows Pre-School Christmas Play 2011

The Minnows Pre-School in Horndean excelled themselves this year with a fantastic Christmas show.

There were well over one hundred parents and grandparents in the audience — and they were in for a treat.

The show was split into two parts – the first part, each of child was dressed in a unique festive costume, representing a part of Christmas, and delivered their lines perfectly.  The second half of the show contained Christmas songs, sung by both the Pre-School children and audience.

Standing on that stage and delivering the lines acts as a fantastic confidence boost to our children – and it is sometimes easy to forget that our ‘actors’ and ‘actresses’ range in age from just 2 year 6 months to 5 years old.

As you can see from the photographs – the delight on the children’s faces as they enter the stage  – our children enjoyed themselves thoroughly – and they delivered a fantastic show!
