ST Thomas' Church in Charl- ton has played host to young children on the last two Mondays with picnic 'n' play sessions.

At a cost of just £1 per family, youngsters were invited to take a picnic and enjoy some fun and games during the summer holidays.

The children had a wonderful time on each afternoon with a total of 30 families turning up for the activities.

There was sand, bubbles, dough and dressing up to keep youngsters occupied.

The Rev Jill Bentall said: "We had a brilliant time."
