Last week, we marked a truly special occasion at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery & Preschool West Kensington — our Preschool Graduation Ceremony! It was a joyful and emotional event, as we celebrated the amazing journey our little learners have taken with us and looked ahead to their exciting next steps: starting school!

From their very first days exploring and discovering in our nursery rooms to becoming confident, curious preschoolers, each child has grown in so many wonderful ways. It’s been an absolute privilege to be part of their early years and to watch them develop friendships, skills, and independence.

The graduation was a chance for families, staff, and children to come together and reflect on the incredible memories we’ve shared. The children proudly wore their caps and gowns, and there may have been a few happy tears as they accepted their certificates and posed for photos.

Adding to the excitement, the children were thrilled to meet a very special guest — Marvin the Monkey, our much-loved Monkey Puzzle mascot, made a surprise appearance in real life! There were plenty of hugs, high-fives, and giggles as Marvin joined in the fun and cheered on our graduates.

As these bright stars get ready to begin their school adventures, we’re filled with pride and admiration. We know they’ll take everything they’ve learned here and continue to shine in their new classrooms.

To all our preschool graduates: Congratulations! We’re so proud of you and can’t wait to hear about all the amazing things you’ll do next.
