To mark National Gardening Week, families and young children are invited to come along and plant bluebells and snowdrops to kick off this years Britain in Bloom campaign. Why not put on your wellies and head down to the Lakegrounds this Sunday?
Founded 19 years ago, 2nd Portishead is a thriving Scout Group which has grown to include 7 sections. – 3 Beaver sections, 2 Cub sections and 2 Scout troops. Being a part of this active organisation is tremendous fun and it encourages youngsters to develop in many ways.
Their waiting list is so long that they would like to open another Cub Scout Pack and offer this opportunity to more boys and girls and this is where you, my fabulous community spirited readers come in . . . .
The next meeting of Portishead New Faces Group is Friday 3rd May from 10.30 – 12.00 in The Nautical Room at the Youth Centre.
Just turn up. It’s free!
My big boys and I love going to the theatre, so when we were invited to the press launch of Starlight Express I was very flattered but also a bit scared! As a Bristolian I’ve been going to the Bristol Hippodrome since I was a child and in more recent years with my own children, so to be at this amazing institution in a ‘professional’ capacity was a tiny bit daunting. What do you think? Did I pull it off?
Following the success of last year’s DinoZoo, Bristol Zoo has welcomed back T-Rex, along with 11 new dinosaurs, to form the basis of this season’s exhibit, DinoZoo 2!
Practically Perfect Family was invited along to the launch event on Friday evening, so off we went, armed with our three mini critics to check out the new exhibit – well, it would have been rude not to wouldn’t it? ;)
