Luton nursery creates a giant rainbow to thank the NHS and Key Workers

Children and staff at a Luton nursery have created a giant rainbow picture to thank the NHS and Key Workers for their hard work during the coronavirus crisis.

The picture was then placed in the top window at Rothesay Nursery, on Rothesay Road, for people to see when they walked past.

Teresa Moss, business manager at the nursery, said: "We were open last week and the staff that were working thought it would be nice to do a rainbow to show our appreciation for the NHS and Key Workers.

"We got the children to help too, they did hand prints for the rainbow and helped create it, we then asked the site agent to help us put it up on the window.

"The rainbow is to show our appreciation for the NHS and all key workers during these difficult times.

"The children really enjoyed it as well and it was a real team effort, it is at the top of the hill and we hope people will walk past and see it, we wanted to create something big to show our thanks for the NHS!"
