Graduation gowns were paraded by children at a ceremony celebrating the end of their nursery education.

About 10 young ones at Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery at the LA Fitness Health Club in Rowdell Road, Northolt , were given a send off before they head to school in September.

The children, complete with graduation hats, attended the party with their parents and were joined by younger nursery pupils on Monday (July 21).

Amy Mott, Nursery Practitioner, said: “The kids came and collected their certificates and then we had food and a party afterwards.

“There was an entertainer, Amanda’s Music and Movement, and all the children got involved. Even the parents got up and danced.

“They are sad to be leaving but they still have a month left so it hasn’t sunk in yet. They’re all talking about what schools they are going to.”

Hungry Caterpillars is for two to four-year-olds, and has a baby room for tots aged three months to two years.
