“The picture attached shows the shaded area that is permanently available for the children. We also have two canopies that goes up during the summer and hotter months that provide good shelter from the sun. The nursery has two pop up tents that also go outside to provide extra shelter from the sun which are used as cosy areas with cushions where children can relax from the sun and look at stories. ”
