A POPULAR children's nursery school near Petersfield which had its beginnings during the year of the royal silver jubilee is now celebrating a special anniversary in the Queen's diamond jubilee year.

The Jubilee Day Nursery in Steep this week celebrated 35 years in the business, with children and parents joining in the fun of the great occasion.

"It was a really good day, with lots of children and parents and plenty of cakes," said Rachel Goodchild-Swan, whose mum Janet founded the nursery in 1977.
