15 new members !! This is so heart warming !! Thank-you all of you so so much for your support ! Thanks for all the comments too.. A Paypal button is a great idea Hoozie ..I need to go into that ! Aww Dixie..what a sweet offer ..the postage may be prohibitive though..you will have to check first ! Sarah you are an angel ..you have now been put in charge of the music corner !! Cara..you make my heart sing and it is YOU who are an inspiration always XXX Biggest thanks Sandy
for designing the little label to stick in front of the donated books..it is perfect and the same colours as our flag!
Thanks so much to Tom & Alison Barret who came to visit the school with me yesterday. We had such a lovely morning , Tom did the serious stuff going through the finances with Rejoice while Alison and I played with the kids ~I went earlier to be there for "snack-time" armed with a boxful of very oddly shaped home-made choc-chip cookies and
Boy..were they popular !! But the
BIGGEST treat was
20 brand new beautiful books donated by my lovely Aussie family ! The little one's were thrilled and you can see from the pics the joy that they brought ! There was also a box of Farmyard nursery books for the babies from Megan (my cute granddaughter) as part of her 2nd birthday present ..thank-you Meggie XXXX I am determined to fill those shelves and this is such a great start. I was thinking if any of our lovely overseas supporters would like to donate books they could do so through www.bookdepository.co.uk where the postage to us is
FREE !! Or www.abebooks.com have very cheap second hand books which counter balances the expensive postage . My postal address is P.O.Box 9 Bathurst 6166 South Africa .

| THANK-YOU Tynan Family ! |
Next week we will have a meeting with Tom to discuss the finances and what can be done. I was happy to see that they have a valid fund raising number so we won't run into any trouble there . He looked at the roof and the leaking in the back class room and will be getting someone to give us a quote on repairing that . At the moment the cook is really battling as only one stove is in working ~ they have a big gas burner but the cylinder was stolen during a break in last year ( they have since had Sky alarms instal an alarm system) so we need to be on the look out for a large gas cylinder and some-one who can look at the stove ? PLEASE keep collecting magazines, cardboard cartons , anything the kids can use during craft time like wool, glue, fabric scraps, beads etc etc . The Fantasy corner is pretty bare so any thing there would be wonderful !

Enjoy the pics and a HUGE thank-you again for all your support . Love Kay XX
Finally I got a work around to comment on your blog!
ReplyDeleteI felt such a rush seeing my design on the books. Kay you are doing such awesome work, you're such a special person! Not sure how you are attaching the book plates to the books, but did you know that you can get 4 per A4 lables? If you get a box of them, I'd be happy to reimburse you the cost!
Love you lots Kay.
Sands..thank-you ! :) :) I will price them and let you know..stick on labels would be so much better !! Howard did suggest it but I thought it would be too expensive!Will come back to you XXX
ReplyDeleteDix..you are such a treasure !!!
