"Corners - 2006"

Summer Play Scheme for 5 - 11 year-olds

Volunteers from Churches across the Deanery ran a week-long play scheme for 60 children aged from 5 to 11 years of age.

"Top Team" award!

"Corners" is held at Northbourne Parish Hall and ran from July 31st to 4th August.

Story time...

Each day began at 10:00am and ended at 3:00pm. The theme of the week was "For All the Saints".

Team games...

The activities, stories and singing, were led by Revd Peter Hambrook and Revd Frank Kent with help from "Mikey" and "Polly".

Quiz time with "Mikey" (and Rev Frank Kent!)

Activities enjoyed by the children during the day included team games: Football, Cricket, Bat and Trap and, for those who preferred Craft work, there was plenty of cutting and sticking!

Craft Work (...sticking and glueing)

On the Wednesday afternoon we had a visit from Pip the Clown with magic and a real rabbit.
