Sun shines on June half term!

 

 

There were over 100 attendances at the June half-term activities, organised by Stafford Borough Council's Sports Development Team, in what was one of the sunniest school holidays that we can remember!

 

The mobile skate park was out again for two days in both the rural village of Weston and at Silkmore Primary School. The young people in these two areas skated for hours in the lovely weather, especially towards the end of the week when the sun shone all day long.
