Dear Penge Green Gym Supporters

 

Come and enjoy the annual Penge Green Gym Open Day!



It's that time of year again when we prepare the gardens for our open day. We've been busy tidying the gardens, making plans for children's activities, nurturing our seedlings and baking lots of yummy cakes!



Dan has been preparing a demonstration insect hotel with cardboard and bamboo.  Ching, a volunteer from our sister group at Bromley Green Gym will be back again this year to do some more fantastic face painting and balloon animal making.  We also have a new and improved (and slightly trickier) treasure hunt so come and have a go!  We also had an army of volunteers this week and we were able to get lots of tidying done.

Our new volunteer Mary is also excited to be doing the yoga taster session on Sunday.  If you fancy having a go she has suggested you bring a mat if you have one as the grass may be a little damp.

So please come along, bring your friends and family and help us celebrate another great year of volunteering at Winsford Gardens.




 

 

The garden is looking particularly lovely at the moment.  The traditional rose bushes are in full display and many other flowers are enjoying the warmer weather.  
 

 

Thank You



We wanted to say a big thank you to Waitrose for letting us be a part of their communities matters money raising scheme for May.  Hopefully we'll find out soon how much their customers raised.

Also thank you to The Dorset Road Allotments who have promised the proceeds of this Open Day Raffle to the Penge Green Gym.
