Wallasey Beach

We looked up Wallasey on line and it said that - Historically part of cheshire until 1974 , the area was sparsely populated before the 19^th century. When I went last weekend it was full of people, very busy! It is a very nice place. We sat on the beach in the sand and had a drink at morrisons and a look around the town. We also found another lovely little café and had a lovely meal - ham and chips then sat on a wall by the amusement arcade. By Derek Powell.

60s night!

Last Friday we had our annual fancy dress disco, and the theme was the 1960s. The venue was the Gladstone club abd the fun started at 7.30.
Staff wore their 60s fashion and so did most of the party goers. Hazel Clarke and Charlie Royle won prizes for best outfits, and Paul Gibson, Paul Cooper, Tracy Radcliffe, Rosie Kelsey and Amy Bamford all won prizes for dancing.
Christina Casson and Tim Wright won a prize for being the best couple on the dance floor. A special prize for best young dancer went to Katy Craven who really enjoyed herself.
We'd all like to thank DJs Tim and Callum who stood in at the last minute to save the whole evening. Ane well done to all for raising £160 for the comforts funds for our day centres.

Jean's Olympic Post

I’ve been watching the Olympics on tv on  Friday for the opening ceremony. I liked the dancing nurses and doctors with the children in beds, and the fireworks. I liked the torches when they looked like a flower, then closed up. Paul McCartney was good too. It was a late night by the time all the flags had been carried past but I enjoyed it. I have been watching the swimmimg this week as it has been good, and the diving and the gymnastics too . And when they swing round the uneven bars I like it, and the football too. By Jean Clarke
