We would like to wish all of our children, parents, staff and their families a very Happy Christmas and Best Wishes for 2015.
Thank you to everyone for your continued support.
We close on Christmas Eve at 4.00pm and look forward to seeing everyone when we Re-open for the New Year on Friday 2nd January.
There are a number of benefits to children performing Nativity plays; building teamwork skills, developing concentration and focus and allowing children to perform and demonstrate their skills in front of an audience. All of which builds confidence that they will continue to develop throughout their life. Our children at Stafford made us all very proud this week as they performed their nativity for their families at St Paul’s Church. A fabulous performance by all!
Our Norton Canes children had a wonderful start to December, as they visited Birches Valley in the picturesque surroundings of Cannock Chase. They chose a Christmas tree and then went on to visit Santa in his Grotto. Santa’s real reindeer were also spotted grazing in their forest enclosure and we even managed to spot Rudolph!
A big thank you to everyone who donated and sponsored our weeks’ events in aid of BBC’s Children in Need. We had a great time dressing up, making and baking, undertaking our bike challenge and the children loved the pedal push! We’re pleased and very proud to announce that together we have raised over £2,400 …and sponsor money is still coming in! Once again thank you so much for your generosity, you are all Superheroes!
We’re pleased to announce that the decorating at Stafford is complete. The rooms are now looking lovely and bright for the children (and tidy too, but we’re confident they won’t stay that way for long!)
The Honeybuns Nurseries are having a fantastic and fun packed BBC Children in Need week. They’re making and baking cakes to sell, dressing up as Heroes and working off those calories on the Bike Challenge. The children are also loving their sponsored Pedal Push!
We all raised an amazing £1,350 last year and we’re hoping we can beat that total this year!
Thank you for all your donations so far.
HoneyBuns Nurseries supporting BBC Children in Need
Monday 10th – Friday 14th November
Honeybuns Nurseries will be holding various events throughout the BBC Children in Need week, between 10-15th November supporting disadvantaged children and young people here in the UK.
We’re planning various ways to raise money from dressing up as heroes, taking part in a sponsored pedal push to making and selling biscuits and cakes, all in support of the 2014 Appeal.
During the week:
Butterflies – We’re asking the children to come dressed up in their favourite superhero costume and to get as many sponsors as they can. We’ll be making biscuits and cakes to sell at 50p and also doing face painting, making Pudsey masks and lots more.
Squirrels – We’re asking the children to come dressed up in their favourite superhero costume and get as many sponsors as they can. We’ll be making biscuits and cakes to sell at 50p and also doing face painting, making Pudsey masks and lots more.
Foxes and Hedgehogs – We’re asking the children to bring their bike/ trikes/ scooters in for the week to take part in our sponsored pedal push. Try to get as many sponsors as you can!
Children In Need Day – Friday 14th November
We’d love all the children to dress up in their favourite superhero costume. We’d like to ask for a £1.00 donation for this day to raise as much money as we can. Our team of staff will also be joining in too! They’ll take part in the Exercise Bike Challenge during the hours of 7.30am-6.00pm on Friday 14th. Come and support them by putting your loose change in the bucket!!
Cakes and biscuits will be on sale throughout the week at 50p.
We’re really looking forward to a fun packed week.
Thank you for your continued support
The Honeybuns Team
We are all thrilled our new back garden at Stafford was completed at the weekend. Our children have already been making the most of it!
We’re extremely proud to announce that Honeybuns in Ercall, have scooped the prestigious prize in the National Childcare Awards run by the country’s most popular parenting site Netmums.com.
Thousands of local parents were eligible to vote in the awards which were set up to celebrate the excellent standards of care in the area – and to highlight those who go the extra mile to help mums and dads.
Owner and Managing Director, Anthony Reeley, said “We are delighted to win this prestigious award. This is a very proud day for us here at Honeybuns and it’s a great opportunity to celebrate and acknowledge the hard work of our Manager Emma and her team. We’d also like to thank the parents for their continued support and for letting us care for their wonderful children!”
Both staff and children will enjoy a ‘Party Week’ at Ercall next week, with various events and entertainers throughout the week to celebrate.
Thank you to Staffordshire Fire and Rescue for visiting our Stafford Nursery on Monday. The children had a great time learning about the engines and the role of a Fire Officer. Highlight of the day for the children was sitting in the Engine and
holding the water hose!
