Preschool's 40th birthday newsOn Friday, 20th May from 5.30-7.00pm, the Wriggle Valley Pre-School, part of St. Andrew's CE Primary School in Yetminster, celebrate their 40th birthday with a "family affair" Cheese & Wine Party. All past and present and future pupils from 1971 onwards are invited to come along and join in the festivities.
The Pre-School has been part of the community life of Yetminster for 40 years and for many, it was a place of welcome and comfort which gave them their first taste of schooling for the many years to come.
We are holding a "Fond Memories" poetry and story writing competition which is open to adults and children. In no more than 100 words, describe your time at the Wriggle Valley Pre-School, happy or sad, silly or serious. For the younger children under 11, why not tell us the name of our fish emblem and give our fish some background and character. There are three prizes for each competition which include hampers of local Dorset goodies, cinema tickets, dinner at The Chetnole Inn and other delights. Simply drop off your entries either to the main St. Andrew's school reception or send them to the school at Stonyacres, Yetminster DT9 6LS. Entries must be received by 13th May. The winners will be drawn at the event and prizes given by Childrens' Author "BABETTE COLE".
Specially produced 40th birthday celebration mugs will be available to buy as souvenirs and if you have any pictures of your time at the Wriggle Valley Pre-School, please do send them in so that we can put them up as part of our display. Entry to the event is £2.50 per adult, children under 18 years old FREE. There will be a bouncy castle, pony rides for the under 5's and lots of fun and laughter. So why not make it a date for your diary? You can only be that young twice!
Tickets will be available from 26th April from Oak Stores, Wriggle Farm Shop, Leigh Garage and the School Office. For further information, please call Mandy Vallender on 01935 873830.
