Fancy Dress Fundraiser for Little Amps Early Years

Continuing on from our Harvest topic the children have been working on developing their fine motor skills by cutting up the different fruit and veg brought in by them for our Harvest Display

A fun morning was had in the playground doing our minibeast scavenger hunt The children were super enthusiastic to hunt for minibeasts, searching under windowsills, around plant pots and among leaves. Our finds were bravely put in our bug jars and discussed at large group time.

Our sponsored Fancy Dress walk was a great success. Well done to all the children in raising a grand total of £944.00. Thank you everyone for your support

We had the pleasure of seeing a rehearsal of Ampertaine Primary School's Harvest concert. Thank you to Mr.Dillon for inviting us over to see this. It was a brilliant performance and our pre-schoolers sat very well

The children enjoyed making stewed apples for our mini apple creams. Some enjoyed them at breaktime and others brought theirs home

On Display in our hallway are a selection of toys from a local business, The Moon and Back. Feel free to take time to have a browse at these when you are in. With a great range available, these are ideal for Christmas gifts.

Our minibeasts will be as snug as a bug in our self made bug hotel. Thank you to Hugh Hunter for making the frame for our children to fill with natural objects found outside. We will be watching to see who takes up residency

It has been a busy few weeks!!!

We hope you all enjoy your break and we look forward to seeing you all Monday 6th November

There are so many good reasons to communicate with site visitors. In this case, it's an interview post, sharing a conversation between the blog writer and a person. Highlight your organization's goals and advantages, through the conversation.

Here are some reasons to make blogging part of your regular routine.

Blogging is an easy way to engage with site visitors

Writing a blog post is easy once you get the hang of it. Posts don’t need to be long or complicated. Just write about what you know, and do your best to write well.

Show customers your personality

When you write a blog post, you can really let your personality shine through. This can be a great tool for showing your distinct personality.

Blogging is a terrific form of communication

Blogs are a great communication tool. They tend to be longer than social media posts, which gives you plenty of space for sharing insights, handy tips and more.

It’s a great way to support and boost SEO

Search engines like sites that regularly post fresh content, and a blog is a great way of doing this. With relevant metadata for every post so search engines can find your content.

Drive traffic to your site

Every time you add a new post, people who have subscribed to it will have a reason to come back to your site. If the post is a good read, they’ll share it with others, bringing even more traffic!

Blogging is free

Maintaining a blog on your site is absolutely free. You can hire bloggers if you like or assign regularly blogging tasks to everyone in your company.

A natural way to build your brand

A blog is a wonderful way to build your brand’s distinct voice. Write about issues that are related to your industry and your customers.

Speak to your audience
You know your audience better than anyone else, so keep them in mind as you write your blog posts. Write about things they care about. If you have a company Facebook page, look here to find topics to write about

Take a few moments to plan your post
Once you have a great idea for a post, write the first draft. Some people like to start with the title and then work on the paragraphs. Other people like to start with subtitles and go from there. Choose the method that works for you.

Edit carefully before posting
Once you’re happy with the text, put it aside for a day or two, and then re-read it. You’ll probably find a few things you want to add, and a couple more that you want to remove. Have a friend or colleague look it over to make sure there are no mistakes. When your post is error-free, set it up in your blog and publish.
