Thank you very much Carol @ Community Link Up for coming along to our parents evening to offer a variety of support for our families, staff and our wee Kids Village Community 😊❤️

💚 Thank You 💚
A huge thank you to Megan and the team at The Kids Village in Saltcoats for inviting Community Link Up along to their Parents Evening.

It was wonderful to meet the team and parents to share information about the support, activities and groups available within our community, and connect with parents in such a welcoming environment.

Events like these are a great opportunity to build relationships, raise awareness of local services, and ensure families know where they can turn for support, friendship and connection.

Yesterday, we had a lovely sunny trip to the beach with the children. They were full of excitement as they explored the environment, eagerly collecting shells and other natural treasures they discovered along the way. It was wonderful to see their curiosity and enthusiasm, with lots of conversations taking place as they shared their finds with both practitioners and their friends.

The children were actively engaged throughout, developing their understanding of the world around them while also building their physical skills as they moved across the sand.

On our way back to nursery, we had a kind and unexpected interaction with a member of a neighbouring business, who came out to give the children bubbles. This was a really special moment, bringing lots of smiles and laughter, and supporting the children’s sense of community and shared enjoyment. Thank you, Portland Funeral Directors.
