Lund Pre-School who stopped puddle-jumping for a little while...

                                                  

A big thank you to everyone at Lund Pre-School who stopped puddle-jumping for a little while to make some beautiful drawings which are going to look wonderful in the installations during October half term.

if I was 8 or 9 I would like to join 2nd Kirkham too.



What a fab way to spend an evening...  In a previous life, I was a Beaver Scout Leader so when the opportunity to take a Circles of Light session to a cub pack I jumped at it.  The cubs were brilliant.  They had lots of lovely ideas and, with their leaders made nearly 40 drawings.      

I think the leaders need medals.  Their energy, kndness and genuine love for what they do is wonderful to see and it's all voluntary.  I think if I was 8 or 9 I would like to join 2nd Kirkham too.  

Thank you to everyone for a fun packed night.  Kerry and I had a great time.
