Manchester Nursery
Transforming Lives recently funded a term of classes at a Manchester nursery within an area of deprivation.
Parents enjoyed watching the stretch and grow sessions when they have been dropping their child off, saying it looks like lots of fun. Children have been going home naming body parts and talking about what they did in stretch and grow. Parents have said this seems to be a highlight of their child’s week
The Children-Â have expressed how much they love Stretch and Grow, children are still discussing their muscles and asking when there next stretch and grow class is!
We would like to give special thanks to Transforming Lives and we will be showing footage soon from these classes. A Big Thank You.
