This is the perfect opportunity to buy beautiful books for family and friends, with a bit of Christmas shopping, whilst supporting our school. We will receive a percentage of the order total, which allows us to purchase new books for our school Library.

Christmas Appeal

Little Cuddle Bear

Each year when the Prep children start school they use a ‘Little Cuddle Bear’ to help them settle. This bear becomes someone to cuddle if they’re worried, something to ‘fiddle’ with if they need the distraction, and someone to talk to about their feelings. The bear is friendly, and never argues back or tells them what to do!

Click here to download the knitting instructions on how to make a  ‘Little Cuddle Bear’. If can you knit or know someone who would like to knit them for us, it would be very appreciated. Please return any bears to the school office.

Thank you!

The Prep Team
