It's almost here. Celebrate Children's Week 2012 in style. 
Here's what's on for a cracking day out:

• Children's Week Celebrations at the NGV
  
• Rippon Lea Estate Kids' Run Free
  
• Go Wild at Werribee
  
• Moonee Valley Children's Week
  
• Romp & Stomp at the Melbourne Museum

It is not often that I am organised, especially when it comes to Christmas.... Can you believe there are Christmas decorations being sold already? However, this year there is no need to panic because our fabulous fund-raising team have thought of everything and provided toy catalogues. Brilliant. I filled mine in last night and now feel a little smug that I have started the Christmas haul. 

So all you families out there, come and join me in my smugness and get in early with your Christmas shopping. And as a bonus, raise some money for the kindy! The toy catalogues distributed last term are due to be returned next Friday (26/10/12). If you have misplaced your catalogue, don't fret - there are some spares at kindy. 

Happy shopping!

Don't panic if you haven't managed to return your order form for tea towels - you have one more week of grace! Please be sure to hand in your order form by next Friday (26/10/12) to ensure you don't miss out on a wonderful momento of your child's time at kindy. 

A sample of the tea towels is on display in the fundraising box in the kindy foyer.

Be sure to set aside Sunday 25th November from 3 - 6pm for the AELC Family Fun Day! There is entertainment for the children (magician Luigi Zucchini), sausages on the BBQ, cordial and icy poles! The perfect Sunday afternoon combination. Grown-ups can bring their own dinner and drinks too (why should the children have all the fun?). Hope to see you there!
