TWENTY-SIX children at Little Alberts Pre-School in Lyneham said cheerio to their friends for the final time as they left for primary school.

Manager Jean Rimmer said an end of term party held last Thursday was a fun but sad event, as so many children were setting off for pastures new.

"I doubt we'll see a lot of them again, so I had a lump in my throat," she said.

 

The garden party, for the 60 children and their parents, included light lunch, strawberries and cream and a party entertainer called Magic Timmy. "Everyone had a wonderful time," said Mrs Rimmer. "The magician made 2-3ft high balloon hats of giraffes and teddy bears and we had lots of family games. We also said goodbye to two members of staff, Karen Farry and Jan Johnstone."

Mrs Rimmer sent a massive thank you to parents for raising £1,500 over the past year. "We only have 60-children so that's a marvellous amount," she said. "We are really, really grateful. Little Alberts is based in three converted quarters in Teal Avenue, Lyneham and takes children aged between two-and-a-half and four.
