PRESCHOOL children in Dartford got into the Easter spirit by making their own colourful bonnets and showing them off in a garden centre.

Around 35 children from Peter Pan Preschool in Hawley Road, Dartford, created their colourful hats and displayed them for visitors at the nearby Hawley Garden Centre.

The children, aged two to school age, also competed to win prizes for the best bonnets.

Preschool manager Sue Ralph said: “We have been doing Easter activities all week and as part of this they all made their bonnets.

“All the parents came along to see - it was quite an event and the sunny weather really helped.”

The event coincided with preschool teacher Tina Thompson’s last day working at the school.
