GARDEN FUNDRAISING
An update on our fundraising for the garden:
We have raised nearly £500 online so thank you for your generous donations.
We have had a cheque of £500 from Dan at Howden’s Joinery in Totton and £50 from Northwood Lettings - a big thank you to them.
We still have quite a way to go so if you could please share our GoFundMe page and ask any companies you work for or know who might be interested in making a donation to charity. As they say, every little bit helps!
If you would like to offer any assistance in helping us fundraise, please come and chat to a member of staff. We want to turn our mud monsters into beautiful summer berries!

EMERGENCY CLOSURE - FRIDAY 18TH FEBRUARY 2022
Following an emergency regional meeting at 6pm this evening, Southampton City Council have advised all educational establishments to close tomorrow. This is due to the expected severity of Storm Eunice.
Both the Hollybrook & Basset sites of Little Berries will therefore be closed on Friday 18th February 2022. The decision to close was taken because the safety of our children and staff is our top priority.
Stay indoors and keep safe everyone.
