Helpers Required!

Special Events, ,

We are hoping some parents would like to offer a little helping hand on the day of our Nativity performance at Newton Mearns Baptist Church, Friday 11th December.

We are planning to  leave the Family Centre with the morning children at 9.30am and at 1pm with the afternoon children and although only a short walk, many hands make light work!

If you are able to assist in walking with the children, please let Donna or Aileen know and we will add your name to our parent helper list.

If you are unable to help on this occasion but would like to offer help in other ways, please let us know – there are always jobs to be done!

Many Thanks.

 

Christmas Fayre 2015

Fundraising, Special Events, , , , ,

Thank you to all parents who supported last night’s Christmas Fayre. We had so many parents who donated items for the tombola, bottle stall, home baking and handmade items for us to sell at our table so many thanks to all!

It was a wonderful evening with a fantastic turn out despite the torrential rain, many thanks for coming along.

Here are a few pictures.

Balta, Cara, Special Events, Texa

Miss Thomson has organised a Disney themed day for all the children on 23rd October.

This will be a fun filled day for our children and we will have a range of Disney themed learning experiences available for children to participate in, if they choose to do so.

Please encourage your child to participate by bringing along a Disney soft toy, dressing as a Disney character or bringing along a favourite Disney story book.

Special Treat!

Special Events, , ,

Some parents have asked about the previously planned Family Centre end of term trip (as noted on our Annual Dates for your Diary Planner given out in September 2014.)

The trips this year have unfortunately not came into fruition – the planning and costs involved have just been too extensive.

Instead – we have spoken to the children about what they would like and it has now been organised for a special treat to take place this Friday 12th June. Animal Man from Mini Zoo will be coming along to the Family Centre. Check out the website for more information:

Photos to follow!

We will ensure a rigorous hand washing approach, as will Animal Man!

 

Photo Magic

Balta, Cara, Special Events, Texa, , ,

Brian and Morag McCormick from Photo Magic will be visiting Isobel Mair Family Centre on Wednesday 6th May to take photographs of your child(ren).

Photo Magic is a fun, family friendly mobile photographic studio specialising in children’s and families’ portraits. Photo Magic have put together a special package for IMFC which includes a variety of photos at a cost of £27.00. A contribution is also made to the Family Centre Toy Fund.

Parents are under no obligation to purchase the portraits. If you do not wish to make a purchase – just let Donna know.

We ask parents not to remove the photos from the Family Centre until payment has been made.

Please note: it is preferable if the children did not wear white or very pale colours. Stronger colours produce much more vibrant results against the white background used.

Congratulations Mrs Todd
