A Special Project for the School Holidays

Our Monday members have young children and we decided to run some school holiday activities for them.

The first week involved puppet making. The hand puppets were made out of recycled yoghurt and cream cartons. These were  primed and cut ready for the kids to decorate. 

We had eight children along, Brendan and Ethan with their mum Kelly, Daniel and Zoe with mum Sharon, Suzelle brought son Jack and nephew Noel and Roseanne brought along Catherine and Sereen Ab Fhar who she looks after.

The morning was noisy and full of fun and many hand puppets were made!
