Well what can I say, I really didn't think we could top last year, but once again we did.

We had 138 Students, Family and Friends turn out for our 19th Annual Christmas Party and Presentation.

As always the night kicked off with Stuart our regular Video Disco, what a fantastic job he does each year Entertaining everyone.

The Children are then entertained throughout the evening with, 'musical Chairs', 'Pass the Parcel' and 'Musical Statues'.

8:15 the Buffet opens, this year what a spread it was superb, no complaints I'm glad to say.

Once everyone was full of food we had our Annual Presentation, last year the presentation took around an hour, a number of people said it took a large chunk out of the evening, so we always listen to our Members to try and better our evening each year. So this year it took around 30 minutes all that was missing was me waffling on.
