Dear Readers<br />
Welcome to 2018 and the latest issue of Primary Times. We<br />
hope you’ve had a wonderful start to the New Year.<br />
The temptation at this time of year is to stay indoors, find<br />
something entertaining on the TV and relax on the sofa under a<br />
blanket until the weather starts to turn distinctly more summery.<br />
Whilst this might sound like a good plan (and it does) there’s always<br />
plenty to see and do once you venture from the sofa and out of the<br />
front door.<br />
In our What’s On Guide you’ll find plenty of ideas for fun days out<br />
and if you fancy swapping your sofa for a comfy seat for a while,<br />
then you could always head to the theatre. You’ll find the best<br />
shows in your area in the Box Office section. Whether you fancy<br />
seeing the animals and celebrating 30 years of White Post Farm,<br />
bouncing around at RedKangaroo or something else entirely…<br />
there are <strong>lo</strong>ads of opportunities for memorable days out!<br />
Now the festive period is over, it is still possible that you want to<br />
party. If you’ve got a child’s party coming up in the near future<br />
DON’T PANIC! Our Party Guide is full of ideas to help you create an<br />
amazing memory for all involved.<br />
You can also visit our Pinterest page for party food inspiration<br />

Don’t forget out our competitions where you could win 12 weeks<br />
of swimming lessons with Everyone Active, a family bounce session<br />
at RedKangaroo, and tickets to White Post Farm, Milkshake! Live<br />
and Guess How Much I Love You.<br />
Phew!<br />
As if that weren’t enough, there are more competitions on our<br />
website too.<br />
Our next issue will be full of the joys of Spring, but until then, here’s<br />
to a wonderful 2018!<br />
