SPRING was in full swing at a Marlbrook playgroup when tots staged an Easter show.

Youngsters at Marlbrook pre-school in Braces Lane raided the dressing-up box and put on a play for their proud parents on Monday.

Group helper and mum Sharon Price said: "All the children had to come in a hat, which their mums and dads helped them make. Some were ducks, dressed in yellow, or lambs or hot cross buns."

After taking part in an Easter bonnet parade the children sang songs and nursery rhymes.

"Putting the show together took a lot of hard work and everyone played their part, including parents, children and staff. I am glad to say it went really well and was enjoyed by all," added Sharon.
