Winter is fast approaching but we've had a wonderful Autumn!
Apple Fun Day in September was great fun inspite of the weather. Special thanks to local resident and photographer Monika Chilicka of Gold Lens Photography for taking these beautiful pictures of the day and sharing them with us. You can see more pictures from the day on our facebook page.
We had a wonderful time in the October Half term at our Nature Club in Chinbrook Meadows. We welcomed 35 children to the session and they made the most wonderful Ghost Puppets from wooden disks they sawed themselves from fallen branches and bits of sheets. They also made their own wooden beads which they used to make necklaces and bracelets.
