Dates to Note:

Sports Day: 20th July

End of Term Party: 23rd July

This is also the last day of the Summer Term.

In September 2010 the grant funding will be increased to 15 hours per week and there will be more flexibility regarding how the time is used.

All children qualify for the grant from the start of the new term after their third birthday.

If your son / daughter is entitled to the grant, you will be able to use this to cover the cost of half or full days at Helsby Playgroup.

Helsby Playgroup is a community managed preschool, mostly by parents and several of the current committee will be stepping down this summer.

Whilst some people have expressed an interet, we do still need more committee members. We need help with lots of things so even if you don't want to take a more formal position, don't be afraid to come and join us and have fun!

Please speak to Liz Middleton or Jo Garner (Chairperson).

Following the AGM on 30th June 2009, the committee is now composed as follows:

Chairman:  Jo Garner
Treasurer: Liz Wilson
Secretary: Amanda Eyre
Committee members: Linda Watkin, Andrea Brennan

Please ensure your child bring a spare set of clothes to Playgroup every session, in a "pump bag" or other small bag.

All items should be named, this includes coats, lunch boxes, sweatshirts, bags etc.
