to everyone who joined in the various Christmas and New Year activities.
We started on 4th December with the annual Christmas Lunch in the Village Hall, when nearly 100 people gathered for the traditional fare. A full house - a good meal - enjoyed by everyone!
This was followed by the Children's Christmas Party on the 11th December, when 25 children together with parents and grandparents, were entertained
with Crafts, Games and Music - and also by Santa who distributed presents to all.
The following weekend was the Annual Christmas Social, preceded by the Nine Lessons and Carols Service in St James. This was the chance
to see the second performance of the Village People Choir and Orchestra, who performed to a packed church, a
number of songs, courageously led by Janet King.
The Social in the Village Hall was also very well attended, with approximately 150 joining in throughout the lunch time period, enjoying the mulled wine, food and drink, and, of course the sparkling company.
The New Years Eve Party was, again, a tremendously successful and lively event. With another full house, Scampi's Disco and Kareoke, and a superb buffet from Amanda, the evening went with a real swing. A great way to see the New Year in.
The Village Hall Programme for 2012 is currently being put together, and a full list will be posted as soon as we have completed the work. A separate committee is looking at possible Diamond Jubilee clebrations for the beginning of June. More details to follow!
