A village preschool has celebrated its 50th anniversary with a park party.
To mark the occasion, Locking Preschool in Grenville Avenue hosted a picnic for children and parents to enjoy.
Games, stalls and a pair of ‘special’ visitors were put on at the park as families enjoyed the sun during one of the year’s hottest days.
A spokesman said: “We had an ice cream van, donkey rides, popcorn, book stalls and a bouncy castle.
“We had tea and cake, and a special visit from Paddington Bear and Peter Rabbit.”
Before the picnic, a graduation ceremony was held where each child due to begin primary school in September was given a medal, scroll and leavers goody bag.
Locking Preschool is rated outstanding by Ofsted and provides care for children aged two to four years old.
