Halloween event
What an amazing Halloween celebration we had, with over 30 families joining us for a day full of spooky fun, pumpkin carving, and ghost-hunting! A big shoutout to Cotgrave Community Kitchen for sponsoring the event, making it possible to host this free event for the community.
Special thanks to Charlotte from Charlotte Thomson Art for leading an awesome art workshop that had the kids (and parents!) creating some fabulous Halloween-themed pieces. And a huge thank you to Jack, who whipped up a delicious vegetable soup using fresh produce from the garden – perfect for warming up after all the ghostly activities!
Thank you to everyone who came out, joined in the fun, and helped make this Halloween unforgettable. We’re already looking forward to more family events with you all.
