POGLES WOOD EXPLORERS

It is hard to imagine that the next time I write it will be another year! By then, the days will be getting longer and we will be looking forward to spring!

I should finish the year by saying a massive thank you to all the people who have supported us this year. Thank you to those who have come and volunteered here and to those who have donated numerous and varied things, from chipped mugs to junk modelling, from wood to window frames – it has all been wonderful. You have no idea how exciting it is to arrive here to find a few cracked mugs sitting in the post box, or what a thrill it is to wander round the site and see things people have done and donated! We are very lucky.

More important still is a huge thank you to all the children and their families who have been here during the year. You are a constant joy and we can’t wait to welcome you all back next year.

I am still hoping to hold some Saturday woodland craft sessions for primary aged children through the winter months but it is hard to know what is sensible at the moment, so I have still not fixed any dates. Please keep an eye on the Facebook page where it is easier to respond to rapid changes in the virus situation. Depending on how the situation develops we may even have our usual Christmas decoration making session – who can tell?

Have a wonderful Christmas and a peaceful New Year.
