Children’s Christmas Party

December 30, 2007

Lots of fun was had at this year’s Christmas party, attended by about 25 children from the village. This year a raffle was added to the party which brought in total proceeds of £605.

The organisation of this year’s Children’s Party went extremely well, the hall was wonderfully decorated, the tea eagerly consumed and Father Christmas enthusiastically awaited and received. The disco and party games were much enjoyed, including a dance competition won by Ben and Daisy.

In additional to the children’s enjoyment, the event was a great time for mums and dads in the village to meet, some for the first time.

A big thank you to everyone who helped make it possible including fund raisers, UVAT, cooks, Santa, hall decorators….

This year a raffle was added to the party and we would like to thank everyone who donated prizes/ bought tickets with total proceeds of £605.

We would in particular like to thank Infineum UK Limited of Milton Hill who donated £500 to the raffle.

The monies will go towards:

  • Upton Children events
  • Tiddlywinks, including a few new pieces of equipment
  • The Children’s playground, contributing towards new safety matting for the swings as well as, we hope, an additional piece of equipment.
