    Celebrating our summer programme

    Come rain or shine, we said.  It’s been mostly rain!  But today we braved putting up the yurt and were rewarded with a variety of showers!  Happy to provide a sheltering service for foolhardy picnickers, we made puppets and stalagmites – and we made a great big mess!
