As we come to the end of a vibrant and adventure-filled term in the Pre-Prep & Nursery, we can’t help but reflect on all the learning that has taken place. Our children have experienced a wonderful variety of trips and events that have sparked curiosity and brought learning to life.

Reception had an exciting under-the-sea adventure with their visit to Bristol Aquarium. Wide eyes and excited voices filled the room as children marvelled at tropical fish, seahorses, and even a giant octopus! Year 1 took a step back in time with a fantastic trip to Dunster Castle, where they explored the grand rooms and beautiful grounds, learning about life long ago. Year 2 are eagerly looking ahead to their upcoming visit to the Fleet Air Arm Museum, where they’ll get up close to historic aircraft and learn all about the magic of flight—an unforgettable end-of-year highlight in the making.

Not to be outdone, our Nursery children have also been on some fantastic adventures. N3 enjoyed a day of animals, tractors and outdoor play at Puxton Park, while N4 had a brilliant time exploring Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm. Across all our outings, staff have been so proud of how the children represented Taunton School. They have truly been a credit to the Pre-Prep & Nursery, consistently showing our core values: Be kind, be keen.

Looking ahead to the final half term, there is still much to be excited about. Our Pre-Prep and N4 Celebration Days will be special moments to recognise each child’s progress and achievements. Of course, the summer term wouldn’t be complete without our Sports Days, family events, and opportunities for our whole community to come together and celebrate a fantastic year. N3 will be bringing the festival spirit to life at their very own Classtonbury, and we’re all looking forward to our Move-Up Morning, when children will get to spend time with their new class teachers in preparation for September. Transition is such an important part of the year, and we are committed to making it a calm, happy, and exciting time for all.

We are so grateful for the continued support of our wonderful parents—it makes such a difference to everything we do.

Thank you for being part of the Taunton School journey. We can’t wait to welcome you to our upcoming events and share in the excitement of the final few weeks of the school year.
