Some of your lovely comments:
​
"Thanks for setting up an Easter trail. It was a good level of difficulty - fun for all the family including the dog!"
​
"We had a lovely time doing your bird egg hunt!"
​
"My granddaughter and I followed the egg trail on Cannon Hill Common and enjoyed it very much."
​
"Thank you for a very fun trail!"
​
"Thank you so much for organising and putting on the Easter Egg Trail! We had an absolute blast doing it. Our 5 & 9 year old (ok and us and the dog too) loved running around the Common in their wellies looking for the posters. It took us about 2 hours and we definitely stumbled on new areas of the common we hadn’t found before. Who knew there was a tree swing? Thank you so much again. It was a wonderful activity."
​
"Thank you for putting up the Bird Egg posters, my three boys really enjoyed finding them all and seeing the wonderful egg photos!"
