It’s great to have cheese rolls available for the children as a lunch option, especially in the winter, and we’re getting together on Friday, June 20th from 3-6pm, to make a big batch for freezing. PLEASE PUT THIS DATE IN YOUR DIARY NOW.

Many hands make light work, so please come along to help out! It should be a fun afternoon, children are welcome, and we’ll have a DVD playing, and the playground will be available.
