Using the equipment bought with help from WHP’s S4GI Community Benefit Fund, the calling software caused considerable amusement as the kids mimicked the rhyming announcements.

At the half way point we were all refreshed with tea and fancies baked by members of the committee.  Thanks to them and to Isabel Alexander who kept the evening running smoothly.
