Penpal request

[squiggle]

hi everyone,

i'm looking for someone who may be interested in being penpals?

some nice person (sorry can't remember who it was) organised it all and unfortunately my penpal only wrote once and we haven't heard anything from them again.

would anyone be interested?

I just think it would be nice for the children to receive letters etc and to be able to share ideas with eachother.

Thanks xx

Hi :)

This sounds like a good idea, it would be nice for the children!

Def pm me and we can start writing :)

[cher25]

Hi, i also like that idea a lot. As mrst333 say's it would be great for the kids.
I struggle to find thing's for the after schooler's to do as i have to get tea on the minute we get in. So it would be great to have them writing letter's and for them to be looking forward to receiving them. :) Pm me. :)

I think it was Lorri that organised it and i'm ashamed to say i didn't do much as Caroline was in hospital etc at the time and then i have forgotten about it till now!:blush: :blush: :blush: Lori is Spangles x

Thanks for your replies.

mrsT333 and cher25 i will get on touch with you over the weekend and we can arrange something. Thanks for offering :)

Monkey - i think my penpal was busy too and having a few probs so just thought i would ask if anyone else wanted to. i got my older ones to do some pictures ages ago and they still ask me when we will be sending them so wanted to sort something out.

Thanks x

[FizzysFriends]

I wasn't about for last time but would love to join in.

[Hebs]

do we need to get a permission slip signed from the parents?? to exchange photos??

[emler]

Yes get parents to sign a permission form first. I'm sure Lorri posted a copy of her form when she first organised this. I will have a look and see if I can find it.

I have children ranging from 3 to 11 years, this would be a wonderful additions to their after school activities.
