What a fantastic day at the Pocket Park! We had so many wonderful people watching the informative and exciting science shows by “Joseph Priestley” aka Paul Hill and British Oxygen demonstrating all sorts of amazing things about gases. Also thanks to Wiltshire First Aid Training for giving lots of us a chance to learn how to do CPR to make sure someone with cardiac arrest can still get oxygen to their brain.
Huge thanks to the volunteers of the Pocket Park for running the event.

British Oxygen doing their first show! More shows plus lots of activities at 12.00, 1.00, 2.00.

Priestley 250 would like to thank our funders and partners for enabling us to celebrate Calne as a town of discovery and promote science and pride in where we live. Still lots going on over the summer.

This community quilt is inspirational. Make sure you take the opportunity to see it in the library during August.

This community quilt is inspirational. Make sure you take the opportunity to see it in the library during August.

We've had lots of people coming in to view the Calne Community Quilt 2024.

So who's seen it and who has a favourite square?
Here in the library we can't decide - they are all so good!

If you're coming in to see it look in the computer area - it's being kept away from the sunlight. Oh, and let us know if you have a favourite or, if you contributed, which one is yours.
