00:00My neighbour knocked and said that she'd seen there was something on the news.
00:03She knew that my little girl goes to nursery very close by.
00:06So I rang the nursery straight away and they'd been put into lockdown by the police.
00:10The police had rang up and said, you know, shut all the doors, shut all the windows, put the shutters down.
00:15And all she wanted, obviously, all she wanted was for your child to be in your arms.
00:20But then I realised, you know, obviously it was the best place for her to be at that time.
00:25She was safer. I knew she was safe. I knew she was OK.
00:28But then my heart just goes out to the poor parents that, you know, the children went to a holiday club and they never came home.
