They enthusiastically competed in their teams at “Potted Sports” – a bit like the Olympic Games, but on table tops – with the Chimps team eventually winning by the closest of margins.

Afterwards they polished off the cakes and snacks which had been provided, before sitting down to listen to Scruff the Dog singing “How Much is that Doggy in the Window”.

Finally, all the children made a colourful streamer before collecting their bags of sweets on the way out.

Everyone complimented the children on their most excellent behaviour, they were a credit to the village of Marchwood. A big thank you goes to all the adult and teenage helpers who made the event run so smoothly.
