News from Pippin Pre-School

Our AGM took place on Monday10th October, the activities and finances of the past year were reviewed, and the new Committee was voted in for the year ahead. We wish to thank staff, parents and carers who attended, and we wish like to give a Big Thank You to our Committee for all their support over the last year.

This month the children have enjoyed learning about people in their community, we welcomed a Fire Fighter, Doctor and Police officer into our setting, the children loved listening to their stories, we thank them all for giving up their time to join us.

On 18th November we will be supporting Children in Need. Children (and staff!) are welcome to come to Pre-School dressed in spots in return for a donation to this worthy charity. We will be supporting the Stotfold Community Fayre at the Memorial Hall again this year. Doors open from 12pm until 4pm on Saturday 19th November, please pop along and try your luck with our chocolate tombola! Another date for your diary is Saturday 26th November. We will be hosting a glitter tattoo stall at the Stotfold Christmas Lights switch on. Proceeds from these events will help fund our Christmas activities for the children.

Our Christmas Holiday club will be open for 4 days from Monday 19h December to Thursday 22nd inclusive, doors open 7.45 am and close 6pm, a daily charge of £40 applies. Our booking system will be open from Tuesday 1st November, for further information please contact the office (info@pippinpreschool.co.uk).

Like many charities our fundraising opportunities are still restricted. We have registered with AmazonSmile due to our charity status. Amazon Smile is a simple and automatic way for you to support a charity of your choice every time you shop at no cost to you.
