Keynsham Jubilee Fun - Memorial Park 3rd June
WPA were invited by Keynsham Town Council to contribute to the Keynsham Jubilee Celebrations on Sunday the 3rd of June. The Town Council, local churches and community groups all joined together to celebrate the Queen's Jubilee in Keynsham! WPA have been working in Keynsham for 5 years and have previously had 3 other events in the park – This was their first time using the bandstand and they decided to use it to full effect!
Andrew, Will and Stuart were the play workers for the day and met lots of old and new faces in amongst the heavy rain showers.
From 12.30 onwards we got to work decorating the bandstand, coverering the whole area with bunting, and the wall with picutres of the Queen! Over 25 children and 10 adults came to help us, with many many more showing up just to Play! 4 children in particular also worked very hard to create a fantastic banner announcing to everyone that we were all there!
In between the rain, both children and adults also had fantastic games of foobtall with a huge bouncy ball, took part in javelin competitions, and helped spread the word about what we were doing. It was a great day and great fun to be back in Keynsham at such a positive happy event. We look forward to many more of these and working with everyone in the community to make them happen!
