On Saturday 12th November 2022, we took the team to Birmingham for Midnight Moon!

Midnight Moon is the annual awards evening hosted by Banana Moon Franchise, and is a celebration of the amazing work of the 51 Banana Moon Day Nurseries across the country.

This year's theme was 'The Greatest Showmoon' and it was spectacular! There was an array of exciting entertainment, from circus acts such as fire-breathing and contortionists, to the incredible Twist and Pulse (as seen on Britain's Got Talent) and Dick and Dom even made a return appearance to DJ for the disco at the end of the evening!

However, the highlights were the awards themselves. There were six award categories, with one winner out of four nominees for each category and we were over the moon (pardon the pun!) to have been nominated in two amazing categories!

Firstly, our directors Kate and Douglas, were nominated for 'Franchisee of the Year' for all their hard work, dedication and commitment to making Banana Moon Barnstaple a success. Secondly, as a nursery we were nominated for 'Nursery of the Year' for our growth, hard work and progress throughout the year. We were absolutely delighted to have been nominated and although we did not take home the prize for either category, it was a huge achievement in itself to have been nominated, from a very stiff field of competition.

We'd like to say a huge congratulations to the worthy winners in each category, and a big thank you to Banana Moon Franchise for hosting such an incredible event. We can't wait for next year's event, and we'll continue to work hard to take home a title next year!
