Summer Carnival

Bridgewater School Summer Carnival

Last weekend summer came to Drywood Hall as pupils, parents and members of the local community gathered for a fabulous afternoon of carnival fun.

For guests’ amusement, attractions included Circus Sensible entertainment shows and circus workshops in the Mini Big Top, traditional sideshow games, festival make-up and glitter tattoos, fairground high striker, pony rides, bouncy castles and tombola stalls. Plus a bubbleologist, much to the delight of our youngest carnival goers.

With live performances from Stagecoach and 13 Performing Arts groups, together with an enviable Stevie Wonder set delivered by Twisted Tubes, visitors could throw themselves into the celebrations or relax with the host of foodie treats that were available for all the family to enjoy.

A wonderful event, huge thanks go to our sponsors and advertisers for their support and to all our contributors to the Grand Raffle for which we had some truly superb prizes.

The freedom to be yourself is the greatest freedom of all
