Dear Readers,
Welcome to our back to school edition! We hope you had a
wonderful summer break and have been enjoying the recent
sunshine, and are now feeling refreshed and ready to start
another school year.
We also want to give a warm welcome to all of our new
readers who are just starting their first year of school. It’s such
an exciting time and a whole new chapter in life, and we hope
your first few weeks are everything you’d hoped they’d be. For
all of our regular readers, we hope your new school year brings
positive change and many more opportunities for fun with your
families.
In this edition you’ll find lots of upcoming local activities and
events on our WOW pages, many of which are free and low
cost. Don’t forget to check out our box office page too for an
array of local theatre performances suitable for your little ones!
Details of our Christmas card competition are inside too and
we can’t wait to receive your entries!
With very best wishes,
The Primary Times Team
