STEPPING STONES:

Stepping Stones Playschool hopes to be in its new location next week and we wish them the best of luck in their brand new facility. The community playschool will be situated near Bruree National School and Bruree Sportsfield and the committee have been working very hard to have everything in readiness for the new term.  However, they are badly in need of some extra storage for our outdoor equipment (tricycles etc). If anyone can help us out they would greatly appreciate it. As a community playschool, funding is very tight so maybe someone has an old shed or similar which they would be willing to donate. Give 087-1649755 if you can help.

Wear something pink to show your support!!
