Lantern Workshop

We had so much fun on Tuesday taking part in a workshop where we learnt how to make lanterns. These will be taken to the Newington Light Parade on Friday 18th October. The parade will start at Newington Community Centre. There will be bands and entertainment from 17:00 and the parade will commence at 18:00. The parade will finish at 18:45 culminating in a firework display and community celebration at Royal Harbour Academy (Upper Site) from 19:00. The festival will feature culturally diverse artists, including a New Orleans style band, a Samba group, Stilt walkers, African drumming, a brass band and Indian drummers.
