The four year old Marigold Centre may shut due to only one pupil this term, far below the three needed. Operated by the Association for the Mentally Retarded, it offers a two hour daily pre school program for ages two to six with volunteer help and no enrolment fee. Transportation can be arranged and interest appears low as parents remain unaware of the service.
