Continuing to show our love and respect for animals today with a visit from a wee baby bunny who keeps popping in to visit us from next door field. The children are staying quiet and still so it doesn’t get frightened and have enjoyed watching it munching the grass and dandelions. 🐰

We had a lovely visit from Tina the springer spaniel today who came to show us her amazing ball retrieving skills. The children remembered to be quiet and gentle around animals and gave her a lovely drink of water in the hot weather.

We had a lovely time on Saturday celebrating our 15th birthday! The westher was beautiful and we were lucky to have previous and current families come and celebrate along with those who dreamed the dream and literally built The Hut.

Thank you so much to the first committee and every committee that has followed without them The Hut would not be here. To those who gave their time and skill to build The Hut and those who help fix it now. To the first famillies who chose The Hut and to those who continue to choose us, leaving us at record numbers! The staff who opened the doors and welcomed this first children in to the staff who continue to create the most welcoming and warm learning environment. The Hut truly has a place in so many hearts and within Lumphanan itself. They say it takes a village and it really does and we are so lucky with ours ❤️

Here's to the next 15 and the rest!
