BRINGING IN THE BIG TOP
On Tuesday afternoon last
week we had the pleasure of
seeing the Dodos Dodos magic
show. The playground would like
to thank the group for that
performance and the one on
Friday at the Penny Carnival,
The Penny Carnival went very
well. Even the weather co-
operated. We feel it was a great
success and we wish to express
our appreciation to everyone who
came and played the games.
Our total playground is going to
Storybook Gardens today. The
children have been anxiously
waiting for the day and we are
sure it will be enjoyed by
everyone involved.
The senior group have been
busy all week painting 'the small
building We work from. We are
sure it will look much better and
be more serviceable.
