Community
Picnic
The Village Hall
Saturday 2nd September 2006
 The picnic was held in the hall
due to the weather (which was showery and very high winds) and those that
turned out had a really good afternoon. The bouncy castle was set up
outside and all the children thoroughly enjoyed spending loads of time on
that. The children also enjoyed having their faces painted and all sat
and were captivated by the Punch and Judy show. A special thank you to
the Police, Red Cross and the Fire Brigade who were in attendance
and let the children sit in their vehicles and answered questions.
Lots
of raffle tickets were sold with lots of great prizes. Thank you
