coats4kids2.jpgParents, are you missing a few coats around your house as winter approaches? Please come and sift though the piles of coats and jackets on the Lost & Found table in the front hall. Children come with a coat in the chilly morning but can forget it when the sunny afternoon arrives. Please don't get caught without a warm coat during the Christmas break.
