We had two busy sale days last week but there are still bargains to be had... Come along to Walberton Village Hall, BN18 0PJ, on Monday 18th August, 10am - 12pm... card and cash payments accepted.
It’s hard to photograph but we have Community Playthings furniture, chairs and tables, books, dressing up clothes, toys, games, puppet theatre, dolls, puzzles, etc etc - it’s taken us 35 years to collect it, come and have a rummage and grab yourselves a bargain!

Today is the 80th Anniversary of VE Day.
It was a privilege for us Purple Ladies to join the Village ceremony before Pre-School opened this morning.
Later, at Circle Time, we talked with the children about our flag and the shapes and colours in it. Then we went out to see the new flag flying outside, which some of the children had noticed when they arrived.
Our snack time had a Street Party theme, with bunting and 1940s music playing. We had a special treat too - as part of our current ‘minibeasts’ learning, we made and ate honey sandwiches.
And then, at lunchtime, we listened to the radio and observed the national two minute silence - yes, really, all of our children remained in complete silence for the whole two minutes. I was so proud of them, I confess, I had a tear in my eye...

Spring has sprung - and we have updated our notice board with the children’s latest creation. At opening time this morning, one little boy proudly announced, “I did that!”. It’s the result of a weeks work for the children - those eggboxes are tricky to paint...
Look out for it if you’re visiting the Village Hall for the Gardeners Club Spring Show on Saturday.

We are delighted to have been invited to bring some of our children’s craft work to display in St Mary’s Church, Walberton as part of their exhibition which is being held this weekend. Please do go along to the church between 10am and 4pm today, Friday or Saturday to see the wonderful things the local community have created...
Here are some pictures of the making of our display...

To Celebrate Lunar New Year, we made a Chinese Dragon...
We started with wallpaper, folded in half lengthways. Then we squirted drops of paint onto the paper. The children used their eyes but not their hands at this stage... then their patience was rewarded when we folded the paper and pressed.... lots of little hands enjoyed feeling the paint squish under their touch. Then it was time for The Big Reveal! It looked amazing!!
We left it to dry over the weekend and today the children have helped to cut it out, and decorated it with tassels and added 2 eyes and lots of teeth!
