Dear Moms, Dads, Relatives, Educators and Business Owners!
We are a week into the school holidays and there are still 2 weeks to go. The weather has been kind to us, so those of you on holiday or on leave, I hope you are getting out and about. Those of you in the office, make a plan because there is a lot of entertainment going on country wide over the next 2 weeks and why should only the kids get to enjoy it!
Thank you for all the positive comments we received for our June newsletter. Due to the popularity of the "Holiday Entertainment Guide" which we included in the newsletter, we have decided to email an official "Kids Holiday Entertainment" newsletter prior to all school holidays (except for this issue of course!)
Welcome to our first issue, whilst we have duplicated some of the information in our June newsletter, we are also happy to advise that we have included some new holiday workshop information and entertainment.
If the weather does turn bad, take a lesson from the British! We did. My uncle and aunt flew out from London in April to visit us and the weather was lousy. Instead of staying indoors with nothing to do, we went picnicking in the rain!
We hope you have lots of fun and memorable moments!
