A pre school, which was established more than 50 years, has moved into new buildings and was opened by one of the star’s of The Only Way is Essex yesterday.

Wells (All Saints) Pre School, Inmans Row, Woodford Green, temporarily relocated to Essex two years ago, but the school was able to move back after building work was complete and it can now offer a wide variety of new facilities.

TOWIE star Debbie Douglas, who used to work at the school, was invited to the opening.

Manager, Ruth Norvell, said: “It is so great to be able to back in Woodford Green and all the new facilities are brilliant. We can now offer things such as breakfasts clubs and an all-weather pitch among many other things.

“We wanted to invite the local community to see the new school and to have Debbie here was amazing. She has been associated with Wells for a long time and her children came here.”
