Easter Extravaganza

Offwell Under Fives Pre-school - Easter Egg Hunt and Parade.
Easter Egg Hunt and Easter Bonnet Parade on Thursday 1st April.

Drop off at preschool at the normal time and then return at 11 o’clock for the egg hunt, bonnet parade & of course coffee and Cake!

It would be lovely if you were able to make a bonnet with your children at home – nothing too complicated needed!! Hope to see you all there...

Sport Relief 2010 is Here!

 And it’s the perfect opportunity for us here at Offwell Under Fives to have fun, be active, and make a difference. That’s because all the cash we raise will be spent by Comic Relief to help poor and vulnerable people, both here at home and overseas.

On Thursday 18th March during our regular morning session, we’re holding a Sport Relief “Lazy Town” Fancy Dress Party.The children are all very excited & have already started to make masks and bunting in preparation for their party; we would like to ask for a donation of £1.00 for each child.

We also have a Hula Hoop Sweepstake (Don't worry -no hula hooping required!) in the foyer at pre-school: £2.00 a go & the winner will scoop a prize of £30 and £30 will go to Sports relief! It’s a Win Win situation!

....the only question left is: what will Kay & Julie come as??

Also, on Monday 22nd March, we will be spending the morning with Ash class at Offwell Primary school, for some fun and games on the field to mark Sports Relief; Children – Don’t forget your WELLIES!

We did it! A massive thank you for helping to make Sport Relief 2010 a huge success and for making the world of difference to people living unimaginably tough lives...
we raised £40.50!!

Offwell Under Fives - Get your packed Lunches Ready.
Lunch Time is on the menu...every day!

Offwell Under Fives : Lunch time!
From 12.15pm until 1.00pm your child will have the opportunity to eat with their friend’s and the staff: encouraging good table manners, important social skills and the experience of lunchtime in a school environment! 

We would also like to promote positive attitudes towards healthy eating, and so we would encourage parents and guardians to provide a healthy (named) packed lunch for their child, which Kay or Michele will refrigerate until lunchtime. 

We will of course encourage a routine of sandwiches, fruit and vegetables before any dessert…

Please let Kay or Michele know which days your child will be attending, Thank you.
