Preschool Rainbow Dragons News Week 3

February 7th, 2012

I must congratulate our preschool families on having such happy, well adjusted children. We have had a great start to the year!
This week the children have been running with a pirate theme. We have been making treasure maps, pirate hats, reading pirate stories and playing with our dramatic play ships and treasure chest. If you have any pirate stories to share from home they will be welcome.
Thank you to those families who have provided us with a family photo. If it easier you can email these to me and I will print them. colleen.new@det.nsw.edu.au
We have had several requests for box construction in our art centre. If you could divert any recyclables from your recycling bin they would be greatly appreciated.
Library bags and books have gone home today. Please return by next Wednesday.
Preschool are not involved in the information evening scheduled for the school next week. Please feel free to talk to preschool staff any morning or afternoon or email me any time.
