MIDSOMER NORTON LIFE

Town Council Christmas ROUND UP T

he very first free Children’s Christmas Party hosted by Midsomer Norton Town Council took place on Sunday 8th December 2019. The party for children of Midsomer Norton aged between 5 and 11 years was held at the Somer Centre, Gullock Tyning.. Entertainment was provided by DJ Glyn and Rocky’s Magic Parties. Always a hit with the youngsters - DJ Glyn soon had the children up and playing games. They had a fantastic time dancing along to the disco, playing with bubbles, and being entertained by some amazing magic tricks and balloon modelling. There were further activities provided by staff and volunteers from Off the Record, Bath, who provided some wonderful face painting, which the children loved. The children were also kept entertained making festive hats and glasses which they thoroughly enjoyed.

There was also a quiet area for any child who needed a bit of time out and here they could play board games with their friends. Halfway through the party the children helped themselves to some of the plentiful party food and drinks. Afterwards, there were more fun and games and activities to get back to. The afternoon was finally rounded off with a very special visit from Father Christmas and one of his Elves who gave each of the children a Christmas selection box to take away with them. We received some wonderful comments from parents at the end of the party which were great to receive. We have also had a lovely comment on our Facebook page from a local resident saying: “Just want to say thank you so much for the kids party earlier, my two really enjoyed it. It was well organised and the crafts were an extra bonus as I couldn’t pull my two away. Glynn was fab as always and obviously it was so kind of Santa to pop in. What a wonderful thing for local Residents. Thanks again”
