Partou Day: A celebration of our UK brand launch

June 11th, 2024

Last week, we celebrated our official UK brand launch with 'Partou Day'! Our nurseries were decorated with balloons, bunting, and flags, creating a festival atmosphere for a day filled with fun events for everyone to enjoy.

Children participating in an outdoor celebration and play-based learning activity, featuring colourful balloon decorations, party games and interactive resources in a secure garden environment. A child wearing a bright purple party hat stands on a green outdoor mat surrounded by dominoes and activity materials, while other children and nursery practitioners take part beneath a white canopy. The vibrant outdoor space includes lush green grass, natural wooden fencing and rainbow-coloured balloons, supporting social development, communication skills, friendship building and memorable early years experiences.

The launch of Partou in the UK represents an exciting time for our children, families and team members. Therefore, we felt it was only right to mark the occasion by inviting them to a day of celebrations.

We asked our nursery teams to focus on activities that they believe best represent Partou and our vision for childcare in the UK. It was wonderful to see their choices!

Many of our nurseries opted for a Dutch-theme, commemorating our partnership with Partou kinderopvang – the Netherlands’ largest childcare group. From painting sunflowers like Van Gogh to enjoying delicious stroopwafels, children were able to immerse themselves in a wide range of cultural fun.

Others embraced our children-first approach by tailoring their day towards the unique interests of those in their care. Visits from the fire service, tractor rides and even some creepy crawlies created great excitement – although the latter did cause team members and families to shudder just a little!

The day’s events set the perfect tone for our future as Partou, where we are stronger together. Watch how they unfolded across some of our nurseries in the video below.
