Fun frolics friends and families - a wonderful afternoon and evening celebrating the jubilee at Lakeside Equestrian Thurlaston.
A surprise opening from Her Majesty (alias Carol) accompanied by her bodyguard, Sumo Wrestlers Kate and Janet.

Thurlaston really knows how to put on a show! Saturday 25 June saw the return of the annual village Carnival and the turnout was incredible. Around 2,000 people poured onto the village park

We can’t quite believe we are coming to the end of another school year already but there’s been no let up in the amount of activities we have packed in recently.

Towards the end of this busy term, our children have competed in several sporting competitions. Sixty Key Stage 2 children competed at Saffron Lane in the annual inter-school athletics competition, eight children competed in a Tri-Golf Festival at Leicester Golf Centre

Summer is associated in many people’s minds with butterflies, those beautiful insects that flutter lazily around the garden and the surrounding countryside. Some of the smaller butterflies, such as the skippers, are easily overlooked

In June, seventeen NALT members went to Curve to see “Cluedo". It was described as a comedy thriller based on the 1985 American film Clue and the original board game Cluedo

We were delighted with the wonderful Jubilee display both inside and outside of the library and thank everyone for their dedication to making our library a brighter place to be.

Huncote WI has enjoyed a wide range of speakers over the last few months.
In April we were entertained with a talk entitled “On my doorstep”. The topic was photography.
Thank you to all those who joined us for our Platinum Jubilee service on Saturday morning 4 June and to all the groups who took part in the colourful displays inside church. A few photographs of the occasion are included with this report.

It’s all go this summer at Leicester Animal Aid, a dog and cat rescue charity, based in Huncote.
Work is underway to refurbish our outside cat sanctuary thanks to a grant from the Pets at Home Foundation.
