Holiday
Club Happenings 2006
...fun and
games at St Mary's
The
Holiday Clubs at St Mary's has been going for some twenty years;
at St Faith's the tradition is now in its fourth busy year!
Each July, a gang of selfless helpers
organise and run five days of events for children, aged between 5 and
11, of the churches and parishes - and they are always packed out,
with a waiting list! The children are organised in groups
according to their age, and follow a programme of group activities
indoors and outside - making things, and doing things. The programmes
include fun and games on playing fields, and at least one coach
trip to an attraction some distance away. The theme this year was
'Space',
The final day features a church
service, with the children performing for their parents and showing
something of what they have been doing, and a disco to round off the
whole week.
Our picture gallery (courtesy of Joan Tudhope and Joy Roderick) on this and the
linked second page, shows something of an action-packed five days for
the St Mary's children - and their dedicated helpers! Following these,
you can browse two further pages of pictures, taken by Peter Connolly.
