IF you happened to venture down to Radley Common last week, you would have been in for a big surprise.

For there you would have seen a family of bears enjoying lunch with their friends from Orford Park Pre-School.

The nursery held a teddy bears picnic to mark the play week of Sure Start month with a teddy bear song, teddy bear food, teddy bear masks and a special storytelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

Other themes celebrated in the month included a beach day, sensory day, transport day and a pirate day.
