A big thank you to everyone who came to our Summer Fayre on Saturday and thankfully the weather was kind to us. It was great to see so many families, new and old. We rely on your support for our fund raising events and we are pleased to say we raised almost £600, which is fantastic. We hope you and your family enjoyed meeting everyone and we know a lot of you went home with a bag full of prizes! Thank you to those who donated prizes for our stalls and Grand Raffle and also to everyone who baked.
Summer has arrived!

Thank goodness the weather has changed – it makes everyone feel so happy doesn’t it? But now the sun is out don’t forget to make sure your child has sun cream on before they come to Pre-School. If they are staying all day we will ‘top up’ at lunch time for the afternoon. Remember your sun hat too!
People who help us
Posted by admin on June 12, 2017
For the next two weeks our topic is ‘People who help us’ the home corner has been changed from the travel agents to the ‘Greenacre Hospital’. We have a few people visiting us to talk about their jobs. We still have a few spaces so if you work in an industry that helps people and have half an hour to spare would you like to come in and talk to our children? Just speak with a member of staff and let them know.

At home with your child
If you have been doing something interesting at home or visited somewhere at the weekend we would love to hear about it. You could jot a few words down that your child said, what you did and where you went, attach a photograph or an item you have collected e.g. an admission ticket, a flower. It doesn't have to be a lot. This week or weekend at home.pdf Copies also available in Pre-School.

Children say...
We are very privileged to work with your fantastic children and we would like to share with you the things they tell us....
As we were talking about our families one little boy said that in his family he had, "mummy, daddy, me and kitchens..."
Coming in from outside a little boy said, "Two of my ears are hurting"
"Have you got a vest on" one little asked when the lady said no she asked, "why not?" Good question!! Mother knows best!!
