Healthy
Eating Week - Commencing 24th September 2007.
Thanks to
funding from Erewash
CVS we had lots of fun eating our 5 a day. Fruity
Faces, Traffic Light Smoothies, Veggie Houses and Weird and
Wonderful allowed the children to try different foods and have
some fun.
Working in
conjunction with our health visitor we provided 5 a day leaflets,
lunchbox ideas and a bookmark to take home. The funds allowed us
to buy a fantastic market stall, threading fruit shapes and new
"healthy" plastic food.

Big
Birthday Bash
-
On the 7th July 2007, we celebrated our 40th Anniversary.
The
sun was shining, and we had many visitors including Liz Blackman MP
who officially opened the event. The local Police chose the quiz
winner by pulling a name out of their hat! Founding Members
Sheila, Pat, Avril and Libby joined in the celebrations. The
winner of the Fancy Dress competition came as a Birthday Cake! The
real thing (pictured to the left) was kindly made by Iain Edgar (one of
the Dads!). Thank you to all who came along to support us.
We
raised £518.00 for school resources and equipment.
