May Day

3 June 2017 By Sue

misc1An outstanding effort from the MET office brought the sunshine for May Day and the crowds came to celebrate. A beautifully poignant crowning on the green was followed by fantastic dancing from the children. No permanent injuries came from the welly wanging and all the dogs were very well behaved for Janet East in the dog show. Days of summer were welcomed in by the fabulous Otter Morris dancers, what a way to celebrate. Fun and laughter throughout made it a day to remember.

Thank you to all the FOPs committee who worked so hard to make it such a

misc2success and to all those parents and supporters who gave their time to help. Many people without a link to our school give their time to support FOPs, which is what our community is all about. It’s when everyone works together that great things are achieved. This year we raised an amazing £1000 for school, which I know will make a real difference in these difficult financial times. So thank you once again to everyone who made it happen, you make a real difference.
