NEWSLETTER MARCH 2006
From Pam and Angela - Project Leaders,
c/o Beecroft School, Westfield Road, Dunstable Beds.
First a big THANKS to everyone that participated in
the Launch Week 27th February – 3rd March and for completing the questionnaires.
From the questionnaires some of the activities requested have been
arranged over the next few weeks – see below
Parents of pupils attending Brewers Hill School and Weatherfield Special
School may also like to know that the possibility of Breakfast Clubs
is being investigated. Both Lancot Lower and Beecroft Lower Schools
have Breakfast Clubs and any parents that are interested in their child
attending, please make contact with your child’s school.
Activities during the school holiday period are also under investigation,
as this is something that has been requested by both parents and children
within the area.
For any of the activities to be successful, then people MUST participate.
Remember, whichever school your child attends, you are welcome at either
the Beecroft Community Room or the Hawthorn Suite at Lancot School.
