Hi Moms and Dads

Thank you so much once again for the Santa Shoe Boxes. We delivered them to Rainbow Educare last week Friday together with Father Christmas, and what a reception we got.
The children were shrieking with delight and a young group of street dances popped in to dance and sing to us as well.
It was a gorgeous morning, filled with love and warmth.
Cornelia the Principal had invited the parents and there were some volunteers from an NGO who came to play with the children and paint faces etc.
All the food and cool drinks for the day were bought with funds raised here at Fish Hoek Pre-Primary throughout the year for Rainbow Educare as well as some donations to this wonderful little school. The children, staff and parents were so very grateful for the presents and fun on the day. A few pictures have been posted on facebook and more will follow. Take a look!

FOOD PARCELS
Thank you to all those who are donating food items each week, into the Mandela Box. 
SPARE CLOTHES
Please remember to pack in some spare clothes for your child each day, particularly the younger ones. The children often need to change for various reasons and it becomes a little tricky when there is nothing for them to wear!!!
FACEBOOK
We love sharing pictures from the school day. Teachers only put photos up on Facebook once a week. Any parent who does not want their child’s photos to appear on Facebook should let their teacher know. www.facebook.com/fhpps.

And on that note...
