Police horses visit our Buckshaw Village nursery

We had a surprise visit today from two police horses. The children had the opportunity to meet and pet the horses, and to speak with the officers who accompanied them all about the animals.

A surprise visit the children will remember

There is nothing quite like the excitement of a real-life surprise, and today our children at The Hub at Buckshaw in Buckshaw Village, Chorley enjoyed a wonderful one. Two police horses arrived at the nursery, and the little ones were thrilled to get up close, give them a gentle pat and find out more from the officers who came along with them.

Meeting the horses gave the children the chance to ask plenty of questions, learn how the animals are looked after and discover the important work they do out in the community. It was a happy, hands-on morning full of curiosity and smiles.

Learning through real-life experiences

Visits like this are a valued part of everyday learning in our nursery. Meeting animals and community helpers helps our children build confidence, practise being calm and gentle, and grow their understanding of the world around them. These are exactly the memorable moments that nurture a genuine love of learning in the early years.

Our commitment to rich, real-world experiences is one of the many reasons families across Buckshaw Village, Chorley, Leyland, Euxton, Preston and Whittle-le-Woods choose our setting. Our nursery is rated Ofsted Outstanding across every available area and holds the Millie's Mark accreditation, so parents can feel completely confident about the care their child receives.
