Festivities were in full swing at Cedar Park Day Nursery in Twyford as colleagues, children and families came together to celebrate the setting’s 25th birthday.
Decorated with balloons and bunting, the day nursery on Bridge Farm Road provided a nostalgic backdrop for the milestone occasion. Devoted teams took time to reflect on the thousands of young lives they have helped shape since opening their doors in 2001, while enjoying cake, charcuterie boards and thoughtful gifts from their appreciative managers.
Throughout the day, children were delighted to immerse themselves in all the activities on offer, including party games and arts and crafts sessions where they made special birthday cards, whilst proud families joined in with the festivities during pick-up and drop-off times.
Over the years, Cedar Park have taken part in endless community ventures, including visiting donating to local food banks and taking part in litter picking initiatives to clear up their area, 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.
Since opening, the nursery and its colleagues have also helped to raise thousands of pounds for worthy causes including Bliss, The Trussell Trust and Mind with fundraisers like sleep rough nights, summer fayres and sponsored cycling challenges, contributing to the four million plus figure raised by Childbase Partnership for charity over its history.
Cedar Park Manager, Rachael Main explained;
“Celebrating 25 years of Cedar Park is an incredibly proud moment for everyone connected to the nursery. It’s been wonderful to reflect on our journey, the generations of children we’ve supported, and the strong relationships we’ve built within our community. Days like today remind us why we’re so passionate about what we do, and we’re excited to continue making a difference for many years to come.”
Cedar Park is part of the award-winning Childbase Partnership.
