Hi all, My name is Tracy. Can I just say what a great web site this is. I'm not sure whether I am posting in the right place but here goes.

hi all, we have booked some partnership with parents and outdoor play training with a training provider called childcare consultancy. the training is on 21st March 09 (its a saturday) from 9 - 4. we have thirteen of our staff doing it, so have seven other spaces (as we can have up to twenty people). since we are paying one set fee anyhow regardless of how many attend i am asking here if anyone wants to join us. (if you feel like making a donation to our toy fund that would be great, but no obligation ) now i can not guarantee comfy chairs (im afraid it's children chairs all the way LOL) but i do promise tea / coffee and maybe some bisuits. our setting …
