Celebrations are planned for the weekend of 2nd - 4th June. |
On behalf of the Parish Council a committee is now progressing and developing plans for a weekend of public celebration to mark our Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and below is a brief idea of what is planned at present:
Saturday evening 2nd June – musical entertainment evening at the Village Hall.
Sunday 3rd June – All day – exhibition in the church of Coronation Day 1953 memorabilia.
Late morning onwards – a Jubilee Jolly at the Village Hall – stalls, games, fancy dress, food – something for all and for organisations to run stalls etc.
Mid-afternoon – a Service of Thanksgiving for everyone in the church.
Monday 4th June – Possible beacon lighting during the late evening.
In addition, the Parish Council hopes to plant a tree in the Paddock and also to give a commemorative mug to all primary school aged children in the village.
In respect of the mugs, we would be delighted to collect the names of all children of primary school age who live in Upchurch, but do not attend Holywell School. Please let one of the committee know so that they will receive one.
