REWIND TO CHRISTMAS with over 300 children With a great team of volunteers, we had a fun-filled and thought-provoking time ‘rewinding’ back to the first Christmas with over 300 children, including puzzles, videos, meeting characters, craft and dressing people as Christmas trees! Teacher Feedback was excellent Town Street Christmas Market – Nativity Dress up! Volunteers gave out our HCT cards and advertised Carols in the Park, whilst our characters encouraged people to dress up and take pictures by the stable – children were given a comic book style leaflet of the Christmas Story. We are looking forward to Carols in the Park this coming SaturdayRead More →
