Break Up



Hi all,

We'd like to invite you to a homeschool breakup from 4pm onward on Tuesday the 17th of December.

We will have a wise man theme - come dressed as wisely as you can, or as another member of the Nativity.

It will be a shared tea/barbecue.

It will be at Samuel & Kim's

An indication of numbers would be helpful but not necessary.  Hope to see you there!
