communities and natural habitats from the destructive effects of climate change.

And as part of my local COP, I am conducting a major Green Winchester survey which you can complete at www.greenwinchester.com

And finally, some readers of The Dever will be interested to read about our Strategy for Veterans of the armed forces which has just been published. It covers legacy issues relating to Northern Ireland, health and wellbeing services as well as maximising veteran employability. I would urge anyone keenly interested in this to look it up and contact me with questions. Steve Brine

Moving ON

What a busy month it has been, we have been so lucky to have had some exciting news that we are leaving our old setting and moving on to pastures new. From September we will be operating from The Warren Centre at Micheldever Station and we can’t wait to be a formal part of the community. We are extra lucky because we will be able to utilize all the benefits that Micheldever Station brings, the open fields, the local businesses, the train station and the ability that we can open for longer five days a week.

We will also be running some Forest School activities from the woods running beside the hall, what an amazing opportunity it is for the children, their families, the staff and the local community. We are so very excited that we can still offer this service and that what a better time to move on and have so much fun. We have lots of exciting activities planned for the next term and we can’t wait for this to start. We will be reopening on Monday the 6th of September 2021.

We will also be looking forward to our OPEN DAY on Sunday the 5th of September 2021 from 1pm – 3pm. This is a great opportunity for us to be able to show you all around our new setting and for your children to take part in some of the activities we will have on offer. Please do come along, say hello to us and find out who we are, what we do and what we can offer your little ones and yourselves. We look forward to welcoming you all in a few weeks time.

We do have some availability at the moment so if you would like or know someone who is looking for a small family feel run community preschool, please do get in touch. We pride ourselves on our motto that ‘Every Child Matters & Every Child Counts’. Please contact our pre-school leader Mrs. Nicola Rae at leader.micheldeverpreschool@gmail.com
