The 19th of October 2022 was a magical day for the Kent family nurseries in Islington. The preschool children of Highbury, Melody Lane and Angel organised a fabulous trip to the Little Angel Theatre. As one big family, with 20 adults and 38 children, we all went to see a show titled “Miniature Travelling Circus”.
We were all delighted by beautiful puppets, nostalgic magic tricks and acts so tiny that made us wonder how we could possibly see them. We met performing mice, acrobatics fleas, a very charming cat and, last but not least, a very brave but smelly dog.

It was an incredible experience for both children and adults; some parents came along and quoting them “it was a very well-organized outing, we loved seeing our children so excited to go to the theatre with their friends”.

The fun started from early morning as the preschoolers had the opportunity to take the bus together, they paid using oyster cards and played “I spy with my little eye”. They then walked from the bus stop, safely looking for cars and bikes, and once at the theatre, they engaged in the performance, clapping and cheering at the very skilled puppets.

This trip was one that we will all remember.
