Wednesday was Ambers last day but we were lucky to have a visit this morning from Amber and her beautiful Labrador Nala for our final day of Pet Week.
We are so sad to say goodbye to another of our amazing Educators as they move on towards their career as teachers. Amber has worked at New Adventure for almost two years and is our Educational Leader, she will be leaving us at the end of the month.
