Ceremony – youngsters from Essex University’s nursery
TOTS put on gowns and caps in a mock graduation ceremony.
More than 30 children took part in the mini graduation from the nursery at Essex University .
They were given a tour of the campus before being given certificates.
Elaine Dixon, nursery manager, said: “It was lovely for the children to have the chance to see what graduation is all about and even meet the vice-chancellor, Professor Colin Riordan.
“Our mini graduation lets the children at our nursery, their parents and carers get involved in the fantastic atmosphere of our graduation days.
“It also gives us a chance to celebrate the end of their learning journeys before they go on to join their new primary schools.”
