The last of the Summer Fun days took place today at Goldthorpe Parish Church. The theme was ‘Teddy Bears’ picnic’, so there was opportunity to paint teddy bears, create your own sticker teddy bear and listen to teddy bear stories, with Gaby Lees from Barnsley Museums bringing some of the bear costumes from the Cooper Gallery‘s excellent Bear Exhibition (still running till 1st September and well worth a visit!)

 

In addition, we also had dominoes, 4-in-a-row and table tennis to entertain us (though the younger children had more fun hunting out spare ping pong balls than playing, it seemed!)

A lovely day with a wide range of ages present – and a whole range of teddy bears to enjoy!

Our thanks to all who have helped so generously with these Summer Fun days: Dearne Area Team, Dearne Churches Together, Berneslai Homes, Tesco (Wath-on-Dearne), the local Co-op, FareShare, Feeding Britain… and countless more people who have worked tirelessly behind the scenes to feed local families and to provide a day of fun entertainment for all.
