Junior Artists Lantern Decorating 8.10.14

HALLOWEEN LANTERN DECORATING



The Junior Artists decorated their lantern frames this week that they made with Becky Bryson last week.

Plenty of sticky tissue paper and glue !

The artists layered the willow frames with white tissue paper and then designed decorations to stick on them out of coloured tissue paper, then put another layer of white tissue paper and hung them up to dry.

Finalising spooky Lanterns for tonights walk!

Yesterday was the last day our junior artists and older people had to finish working on their Lanterns ready for tonights parade! Once we put the finishing touches to them including some spooky bats, spider webs, and BOO's we just put a second layer on then passed over to becky for the finishing touches. Putting a little 'cat flap' on so we can light them tonight. 
A few nail biting moments when we thought we would have a couple of unfinished ones but we all got stuck in and done them all!

Together we have about 20 lanterns - and a lot more pumpkins to help guide us through the woods on tonights scary walk!! 

Keep posted for pictures and tales from tonights spooky event!! 

Happy Halloween everyone!!

Santa Claus is Coming to Halewood

Check out Santa, his fabulous sleigh and twinkling reindeer coming to Halewood this week and next. Courtesy of Halewood Community Spirit
The sleigh has been designed by Mike and the Reindeer by the very talented Becky Bryson assisted by Carole Trenaman. Merry Christmas Two floats - Santa’s Sleigh & The Branded Collection Van for the Mission Christmas will tour Halewood. On the final night (19th December) the procession will terminate at the new Halewood Shopping Centre – where the twelve days of Christmas and final get together will include carol singing and will act as a climax to the event Santa’s illuminated float will be a Sleigh on the back of a twenty one foot vehicle Santa Driving 2 Four Foot High Illuminated Reindeer Reindeer. This display will also have amplified music playing the Twelve Days of Christmas, and similar interspersed Christmas anthems. This will then be followed by the Radio City Mission Christmas Float – collecting unwrapped presents for their annual appeal and given up by Halewood Residents. Lou Armstrong one of the organisers of the event said “We want to foster a sense of the true Halewood Community Spirit, and aim to convey a focus on the community by promoting special events that enable our neighbourhood to come together - in the interests of improving the conditions of life in the Township”
