All sorts of fun throughout summer
Despite the unpredictable and sometimes disappointing weather, there was no lack of fun at Holy Trinity Church this summer.
The first week of the holidays saw the return of the popular theatre club, and the children were kept busy writing, rehearsing, singing, prop making and generally having lots of fun working together towards the lively and totally unique production In My Shoes, performed to an appreciative audience made up of family and friends.
The fun continued later in August with Holy Trinity Church’s CrystalFactor-Krypton-Maze. After a grey and overcast morning, around 40 parents, grandparents and children all met on the playing field at Holy Trinity Primary School for an afternoon of fun & games in glorious sunshine! Following an expertly-led warm up, the contestants organised themselves into teams with suitable team names before the first challenge… the dressing-up relay (let’s just say that shirts are difficult to button when you are wearing rubber gloves!)
Other challenges included a dribbling-the-football race, an egg-and-spoon race, even a grown-ups race. There was serious attempt to break the volleyball keepy uppy record, before playing ‘catch the water balloon before it bursts’, resulting in some soggy t-shirts!
The afternoon was rounded off with an assault course, with yet more water followed by squash and cake! Everyone left festooned with stickers, full of delicious cake and a bit out of puff – it was a wonderful afternoon and much enjoyed by everyone who took part. Looking ahead we will be celebrating Harvest Festival at the end of September, with a Harvest Supper for all the family in church on Saturday 30th from 5.30pm until 8pm and our harvest services the following day.
