Hibiscus Nursery School

Hibiscus Nursery School put on their Nativity Play - The Littlest Christmas Tree, on Friday 2nd December at Westwood International School in their wonderful hall. The play included children from just over one year all the way up to 5 years old. The children had such a fantastic time practicing over the term and the end product was definitely well worth all the hours of practicing. Fun was had by all and when I looked into the audience at the parent's faces, I believe they also thought their children were wonderful. Thanks go to Roelien and her team of wonderful teachers for all their help with putting the play together.
