Posted: (l dS F)Families across the North East are invited to join celebrations at Durham’s newest children’s nursery on Sunday 19th June for an action packed day of entertainment, laughter and family-friendly activities.

The fun- filled day will include activities such as soft play, face painting, competitions, arts and crafts, balloon animals and entertainment from a spell-binding magician.
The Clever Clogs team is offering an open invitation to anyone keen to join the party, explore the newly refurbished nursery and celebrate the recent takeover of the site.

All proceeds from competitions and stalls will go to the nursery’s chosen charity Newcastle’s Royal Victoria Infirmary’s (RVI) Children’s Clinic.
Andrea Townsley owner of Clever Clogs Nurseries said: “We are looking forward to hosting our first family fun day at our new site in Bowburn. It has been a fantastic and busy few weeks for us since taking over the nursery as we have redecorated the whole building, added a host of new toys, updated the outside playing area and set up new weekly classes, as well as welcoming lots of new children and parents into the Clever Clogs family and taking on new staff. We are making sure that Bowburn Clever Clogs provides the same outstanding level of education and care as our flagship nursery in Belmont”.
“We will be welcoming our new neighbours, current and former clients and their children, and friends and family who have supported us from day one as well as prospective parents, to see the nursery, meet our team and find out more about our new facilities and ambitions for the future.”
