Sir Mike Penning congratulates Rising Stars Day Nursery in Grovehill on their successful first year

Local MP, Sir Mike Penning, visited Rising Stars Day Nursery in Grovehill earlier this week to congratulate them on a successful first year.

Sir Mike was shown round the premises by Danielle Riley Area Manager and Nursery Manager Meg Burrows. They visited the Comets (aged 1-3) and the Rockets (aged 3-5) and discussed the importance of early years education.

Each child is allocated a key worker who is responsible for their assessment and learning development.

Sir Mike said:

“Rising Stars is a delightful nursery and it is clear that the staff are dedicated and enthusiastic and have a great relationship with the children in their care.

“I was impressed with the attention given to every child and the welcoming environment which makes the children feel safe and at ease; so they have fun and learn at the same time.

“It is always helpful to discuss how the Government’s efforts to support parents with young children actually work out in practice.

“I congratulate them on completing their first year and wish them well for the future.”

Meg Burrowes said:

“We are extremely happy with how the year has gone, we have an incredible team behind us and it’s an amazing opportunity to be able to help many different children and families and we cannot wait to see what the future holds for Rising Stars’.”
