BERRIES Pre-school has re-opened with a new committee. The charity-run pre-school had to close last November as there was no committee in place, however now a committee has been formed it is back up and running. Emma George, Early Years Manager, said: "We would like to thank our new committee as without you we could not run, and for the patience of the parents and children who are now along with the staff all enjoying being back at pre-school! We would like to mention that the closure was nothing to do with staff /training it was simply due to having no committee in place which is a legal requirement."
