Can you help?

We need help with the following:

👑 Food: finger buffet – to pledge your support, please follow this link to our simple event organiser

Downloads

The following downloads are available:

👑 a crown template to colour in and wear on the day.

👑 bunting template to colour in and bring on the day. Please write your/your child’s name on reverse.

👑 food flag template to label the food you bring. NB: if you have pledged food on the poll, no need to print out – your label will be available for you on the day.

Get set to party

Seating: please bring a camping chair or picnic rug, plus anything else to make yourself comfy and weatherproof.

Food: please cover any food you bring to keep those pesky insects out, and include a label listing ingredients (for people with food allergies) – you can even use this food flag template: use the blank side to write the name of the dish and try to include any allergens, or ‘free-from’ ingredient information. And if you either want or need to avoid sharing the food you bring that’s fine, too. What’s more important is to see you on the day. Oh and why not send your recipe to The Bugle – it means people can try the recipe at home if they’ve enjoyed your wonderful cooking!

Drink: please bring your own soft or alcoholic drinks. None will be provided.

Picnicware: please bring your own plates (melamine or paper), cutlery, plastic cups/beakers (no glass please).

Dogs: well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome. If you are bringing a dog, please also bring your own water and dog bowl, plus bags. Please pick up after your dog, thank you. No dogs allowed in the Old Rectory.

Entrance: the party is free to attend. Please enter either via the footpath from Tolldown Way, or the gate from the churchyard.

We can’t wait to see you there!
