New year, new magazine
It's 2018 all of a sudden, which means a whole new year is coming up full of fun, excitement and education at Snapdragons - plus it's our 20th anniversary, so we'll have lots of extra things planned for that!
For now, enjoy this early treat - our January 2018 magazine - filled with fun and insightful news and articles about what's been going on over the past few months at Snapdragons. It's great to have you back!
Party time for the team
We changed venues for our Employee Christmas Party this year, heading to Bristol for our biggest and "bestest" Christmas party ever!
After an early opportunity to explore the science exhibitions, we moved upstairs to enjoy food, drinks, photo opportunities, Rodeo Reindeer and a hugely popular cash grabber!
Moving on to our Snappy Awards, we recognised some of the best performers of the year, as voted for by their peers, ending the night with dancing into the early hours.
Once again, a wonderful evening, and it was fantastic to bring our incredible team together and celebrate not only Christmas, but another impressive year of bringing exceptional childcare to Bath, Bristol and Wiltshire.
Thank you to you all - together you're the heart of Snapdragons and you deserve all the recognition you get. Here's to 2018 and continuing to follow that trend.

Christmas closure dates
We're rapidly approaching the Christmas break now, as we hurtle towards December with all of the speed of a toddler hearing the lunchtime call, which means that the nurseries will be closing for a brief period of time once Christmas Day hits us. We'll only be closed for a week though, so don't worry, we'll be back before you know it.
- Christmas Day - Closed

- 27th - Closed
- 28th - Closed
- 29th - Closed

Any questions, feel free to raise them at your nursery, but otherwise enjoy your breaks everyone!
Autumn feasts at Snapdragons
Our summer is coming to an end, which means we're heading straight into autumn, bringing with it beautiful colours and scrummy foods to warm your tummy on a cold day. We've just launched our four new autumn menus, designed to do just that, including our Thai Carrot & Coconut curry - the recipe for which is in our new magazine.
Take a look over at our healthy eating page to find the menus and the weeks in which they will be served at Snapdragons.
September magazine is here
Our new September magazine is now available and we've got some great features in there as always, including an article on attachment with children in their early years. We know you've all been chomping at the bit to see more graduation and farm photos too, so we squeezed them in there, added a big photo of a helicopter and even found time to write a story about ducklings and rustle up a tasty curry. I think that counts as every base covered. Enjoy.
