Thank you to everyone who joined us this morning to celebrate the grand opening of our nursery! It was heartwarming to see so many parents, teachers, community members, and friends gathered in support of this milestone.

This moment has been a long time in the making, and many of you know just how much dedication and effort have gone into bringing our nursery to life. Though the journey has had its challenges, each step has been incredibly rewarding. Our driving force has been the commitment to creating a safe, joyful, and nurturing environment where children can grow, learn, and play.

We’re immensely grateful to our academy trust and our Local Academy Committee (LAC) members for believing in this vision and for providing the resources and encouragement to make it a reality. Their support has been invaluable, and we thank them sincerely for their partnership.

Our heartfelt thanks also go to our incredible staff, who have worked tirelessly, often late into the evening, to bring this vision to life. From the initial planning to preparing classrooms and adding the little touches that make the nursery feel like home, their passion is truly what makes this space come alive.

And to our community and parents: thank you for trusting us. Your belief in our vision motivates us daily to create the best possible environment for your children. We can’t wait to watch them grow, learn, and thrive in this wonderful new space.

This nursery is more than just a building; it’s a place of discovery, imagination, and friendship. A place where young minds will take their first steps into learning, laughter, creativity, and exploration. We’re confident that St Giles Nursery will become a cherished part of our community.

Thank you all once again for being here to mark this special beginning with us and for the Mayor of Matlock for officially opening our nursery doors. Here’s to a bright future filled with joy and wonder! ✨
