Jacqui added: “Everyone made such an effort but those are the costumes that really stood out.

Twistin’ Tots and Twistin Tikes classes aim to promote learning, co-ordination and movement in young children. Simple actions are used that children can join in with, plus puppets and props to assist children’s learning development and motor skills. All classes help to develop the skills required by the early year’s foundation stage for when children start school. Classes are suitable from birth to aged five.
