Christmas festivities continued this weekend with a children's Christmas party in the hall. With the promise of a visit from father Christmas the children enjoyed decorating Cakes and Christmas decorations, as well as party games. All of which culminated in the Children singing wistfully at the top of their voices, beckoning Father Christmas to make an appearance. Then silence fell on the hall, as the distant sound of bells became closer and closer. Could it really be? The children's eyes glistened with anticipation with the sparkle of a thousand stars. Suddenly a flash of red appeared at the door, the silence was broken as cheers filled the room, and the smiles illuminated the hall. It was really him, Father Christmas with his beard as white as snow, and strangely rugged good looks, had arrived. Each child received a gift and pearls of wisdom from Father Christmas ensuring good behaviour until Christmas day. Then as quick as he arrived the noise of the reindeer faded into the distance and he was gone.
Many thanks to the Children and parents who took part and a very merry Christmas from the Village Hall Events Committee.
