The Hi-5 Talk Time Cafe in Bude held its Christmas party on December 18 at London House, The Strand. There were penquins, snowmen, an ‘Ice Igloo’, Santa, mince pies, Hi-5TTC’s own ‘Fire Engine,’ snow Playdough baking, raffle and pure fun! A spokesperson for the group said: “In all we think today’s Christmas party was a huge success judging by the looks on the children’s faces!” The group meets each Tuesday from 10.30am to 12.30pm in term time and is for parents and families of children with additional needs. More families have recently joined, along with volunteers, but the door is always open for more. For more information, contact Carolyn Slingsby on 07770 725807 or email [email protected].
