What an amazing day this was!! The sun shone, the music played, and everyone was happy. Thanks must go to Pamela Cosgrove and Pauline Harris for organising this event. Well done you two; we know you had many challenges in the weeks leading up to the fete and thankfully all came right on the day.

The Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday March 30th was a great success. Many said 'We look forward to next year for another hunt' The sun shone and Rectory Gardens was buzzing with young people and their parents. In the photo - young Teddy found the Golden egg (after many people had asked to give them a hint - no we didn't). Behind him is a taller young man, Harry Olah, who guessed the closest number of eggs in the bottle. Total being 204 and he guessed 206. Last year Harry found the Golden Egg and was determined to win something again!

Thankfully the weather was good and it was all enjoyed by a very large crowd of people being entertained by choirs from St Mary's Church, Bishop Tufnel, Downview and Edward Bryant primary schools as well as Arun Community College. Father John blessed the tree (donated by Butlins) with two young people from Downview and Edward Bryant schools helping with the switch on. Mulled wine, soft drinks and mince pies helped the jollity. FVCS volunteers did a brilliant job setting it up and helping throughout. Thank you to all who came and all who helped.

Although the weather threatened to ruin the day, the rain stopped just in time and a wonderful Fete got under way. It was a great great success.
A great variety of stalls arrived, and all did very well. The Tea Tent sold out by 4pm and the BBQ did a roaring trade.
