CHILDREN from a preschool in Wellington are hopping with excitement for Easter.

Pupils from Wellesley Park Preschool have been busy decorating paper eggs in the run up to the break, set for use in an egg-citing Easter trail, with funds raised used to send children on a Forest School adventure at Wellington’s new forest school.

Melanie Sutton, of the parent partnership at the preschool, said: “We would like to thank Friends of Wellington park for allowing us to organise this event. Businesses FlipOut Somerset, Splat Messy Play, Adventure Babies, Megan’s Academy of Dance, Charlotte Louise, HomElectrix, Eloquent technologies, Clerksroom , Caroline Bailey Designer Travel and Ecoprotex have sponsored eggs to help raise funds.”

“If your looking for something to keep the children entertained over half term please join in and help us to raise money.”

Maps will be on sale at Wellington Sports Centre for £1. All completed maps will be entered into a draw to win a chocolate hamper.
