Festivities were well underway at Windermere Day Nursery in Kettering as children and colleagues marked 35 years of Childbase Partnership with a week of celebrations.

At the Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ Day Nursery on Haweswater Road, staff teams decorated the setting with balloons, bunting and backdrops for the occasion, whilst delighted children showcased their creativity by making ‘35’ themed arts and crafts, before enjoying a fun-filled afternoon, complete with music, dancing and party games, as well as a special lunch.

As part of the celebrations, colleagues enjoyed a bespoke celebration cake with the children, made by talented Nursery Chefs, as well as posing for pictures with specially made photobooth props and taking part in a company-wide prize giveaway, with Windermere staff winning treats including beauty boxes, cheese hampers, Hotel Chocolat gifts and candles.

Over the years, Windermere have received numerous ‘Outstanding’ judgements from Ofsted, as well as helping to raise tens of thousands of pounds for worthy causes including CRUK, Mind and Bliss, contributing to the 3.5 million plus figure raised by Childbase Partnership for charity, as well as being the proud holders of a host of accolades, including the prestigious Green Flag with Distinction from Eco-Schools for their environmental efforts.

Windermere Team Leader, Hayley Kernick explained;

“Our team of dedicated nursery colleagues went above and beyond to make this week truly unforgettable for the children in our care. We are so grateful for their hard work, creativity, and passion for early childhood education. It's their commitment and dedication that make Windermere such a special place for our little ones to grow, learn, and thrive.”
