Youngsters' cards and gifts for NHS in 'Kindness Week'

This article appeared in the Melton Times on 25 February 2021.

Children and staff at Woodlands Nursery & Forest School in Melton Mowbray have shown their thanks to NHS staff by making cards and gift hampers for them during the nursery's Kindness Week.

The children used their creative skills to design cards to thank NHS staff for all their work over the past year.

These were presented to Zsófi Pritchard, an ambulance technician with East Midlands Ambulance Service, and Chloe Davison, a deputy sister at the Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham (pictured).

Alongside the cards, the NHS team was also presented with two hampers the children had helped staff to put together. The hampers, including treats such as biscuits, facemasks and hand cream, were the result of donations from staff.

The cards and hampers were part of the nursery's Kindness Week, where activities and games are organised around the theme of being kind to one another and respecting the feelings of others.

Amy Douglass, deputy nursery manager, said: "Staff and families at Woodlands have been in awe of the amazing job that our local NHS heroes have been doing throughout the pandemic. Kindness Week was the perfect opportunity to celebrate this and thank them for everything they have done for us."

"Throughout the year, we help support children as they begin to form positive relationships with others, start to manage their feelings and learn about understanding the impact of their actions on others. So an activity like this helps the children to learn about kindness and supports their social development, as well as giving us a chance to say thank you to those on the NHS frontline."

Woodlands has been caring for children since the start of the pandemic and, as key workers, the team has been at work throughout. Woodlands focuses on learning through play outdoors and is rated Outstanding by Ofsted.


Park Lane Kids operates two nurseries in Melton Mowbray - Woodlands Nursery & Forest School (on Asfordby Road) and Park Lane Nursery (on Scalford Road). Both nurseries care for children from 6 weeks until school age. We are open all year around, Monday to Friday.
