This sounds like it's been another successful event at Kirkby Children's Centre with everyone enjoying the activities. The team worked really hard this summer to provide families with fun events that are free at point of entry, but parents had asked if some voluntary fund raising could happen and the team supported this which is wonderful. These comments are great to hear and all comments will help us plan for our next school holiday events. Thank you
