letter to members - Play and Learn
End of first term! C'est déjà Noël !
Franqueville St Pierre, 7 Dec. 2015,
(with slight modification 27 Dec.)
Dear friends, parents, and students, |
|
- We trust that you have had an excellent term. This term we have around 170 members (children, weekly adults, and intensive adults) which seems more than honourable. With good numbers of new students we have opened a new group for adults on Wednesday evenings.
- Our adults' Christmas parties were held on Tuesday 15th and Thursday 17th December.
Each person brought something to eat or to drink, as well as a small present. Record numbers of students attended our parties! The choir came and sang a varied programme with us.
>>click >> photos and recordings of the parties will be placed here
- Parents of our children were invited to come and sing Christmas carols with the children and their brothers and sisters, at the beginning or end of their class on 15, 16 or 17 Dec.
- The Annual General Meeting will be held on Friday 8-Jan-2016, at 18.00, at Play and Learn.
- Our Association is still looking for a new Président - if you can help, please make contact with either Jan W. or Sandrine Bréard
- The agenda and confirmation of time/date will be given by mail and by poster soon.
- Play and Learn has its 30th anniversary this year.
Founded in October 1985, we shall be holding some celebratory events in the early New Year. These will include guided tours and visits in Normandy, an Open English Day on 23-January with various activities in English; a balloon race; and special T-shirts >> more details are on the Anniversary page >> click
If you have other ideas for the celebrations, let us know (click to mail) ASAP!
We wish you all a very Happy Christmas and an excellent New Year with Play and Learn.
Yours sincerely
