Fundraising Cake Sale

Dear Parents,

On the morning of Saturday 29th September we are holding one of our popular fund raising Cake Stalls outside Kerridge’s Butchers in Nayland and we are asking all of our Woodland Corner parents if they are able to help, either by making something delicious for us to sell or helping on the day – or both! Helping on the day is a lot of fun and an ideal way for new parents to meet other parents and members of our Committee. We will have a rota on the door in the lobby for volunteers to put their name on so you would not need to commit yourself for more than an hour.

Cakes can be dropped off at Woodland Corner on Friday 28th September or brought along to the stall early on the morning (by 9am please). Could we ask that all produce is labelled with exactly what it is and that tins and trays are also labelled clearly so that they can be returned to you afterwards.


Experience has taught us that cakes with heavily iced toppings melt very quickly in the glaring Nayland sun (yes, really!) so it might be better avoid those kind of creations.

Thank you in anticipation!

Playgroup Sessions!

We have availability at all of our Playgroup sessions for children from 2 years old.

Up to 15 hours a week funding is available for children born on or before 31/8/2009 and for younger children where parents are in receipt of certain benefits.

Please call us to arrange a visit or to get more information. Alternatively come along to our Open Afternoon from 2.30pm on Friday 28th September.

BY ORDER OF THE COMMITTEE

Secretary signature:	Rachel Hitchcock	Date:	19 September 2012
Address:	c/o Woodland Corner

In simple terms! this EGM is just part of the process for Woodland Corner to become a charitable company limited by guarantee. This is recommended by the Pre-School Learning Alliance because it protects our committee from any financial liability. Because, as parents, you are effectively members of Woodland Cornerwe need to give notice of the EGM so please just let Caroline know if you have any questions or would like to attend.

Autumn Term 2012

Welcome to the Autumn Term at Woodland Corner!

We look forward to welcoming all of our children back on Tuesday 4th September. If any of your children's clubs at Nayland School are not starting until next week and you need to amend your sessions with us then please do remember to let us know since our spaces are limited.
