Kids Out Day - Flambards

Kids Out day June 9th saw a good number of Rotarians from a number of clubs in the western area of District 1290 take 66 children plus the caring staff from from Nancealverne and Curnow Schools to Flambards. The delight on children's faces shows the worth of the day, it seem very special to them.  Our thanks go to all contributing Clubs for their financial & physical help & also to Flambards for their contribution and friendly help.
