Happy Pancake Day! Today can be great fun for all the family but please keep safety in mind.

• Keep pans out of reach of little hands by turning pan handles away from the edge of the counter and using the back rings of the hob
• Don’t leave your cooking unattended
• Keep small children away from the cooking area
• In the event of a burn injury, remember COOL, CALL, COVER. COOL the burn for 20 minutes under cool (not cold) running water. CALL for help. COVER the burn loosely with cling film.

💚 National Child Mental Health Awareness Week 💚

This week, we shine a light on something that matters every single day — the mental health of our children.

Children face challenges we may not always see: academic pressure, social struggles, anxiety, trauma, and the impact of the world around them. Just like physical health, mental health deserves attention, compassion, and care.

Let’s work together to:
✨ Normalize conversations about feelings
✨ Create safe spaces for children to express themselves
✨ Encourage asking for help without shame
✨ Support families, teachers, and communities in recognizing early signs

When we listen to children, validate their emotions, and provide support, we help build resilience that lasts a lifetime.

Every child deserves to feel seen, heard, valued, and supported. 💙

Alnwick

Join us for a day trip to the historic market town Alnwick which is situated in the heart of Northumberland. There's so much to see and do in Alnwick from Alnwick Castle/ Gardens/ Lilidori shopping and so much more.

Lilidorei

Lilidorei is a magical, mysterious village full of play and home to 9 clans who worship Christmas. They are ruled by Lord Elfwin, King of Lilidorei who lives in Elfwin Drin, the biggest play structure in the world. When children visit Lilidorei, they can create their own narratives, visit the clan houses, and join in with stories with our Story Keepers.

Alnwick Gardens

Created by the Duchess of Northumberland, The Alnwick Garden is a delight; a modern garden combining sculpture, water features, and beautiful plants to create a wonderful family attraction. The Garden features the largest collection of European plants in the UK and the largest Japanese Cherry Orchard in the World.
