A Magical Christmas Festival at Shipston Lodge!
What a truly enchanting day at our Christmas festival! From the delightful Shipston Brownies and Rainbows opening the event with beautiful carols to the talented Spotlight Dance Academy captivating the crowd, the day was filled with festive cheer.
Children loved meeting Santa and his reindeer, while Carolyn from Changing Faces created magical artwork with her face painting. Professor Collywobbles brought endless laughs, and the Umpah Band kept spirits high with lively tunes.
