🎃 A big thank you to everyone who joined us for our Halloween Party last Friday! We had a fang-tastic time and it was brilliant to see so many little ones dressed up in their spooky costumes!

It was an evening packed full of activities, from a costume parade to chocolate apple decorating. Our highlight though has to be Wrap the Mummy, where the kids transformed their adults into mummies - we were impressed by their creativity and teamwork!

👻 What a truly spooktacular evening! We hope you all had a happy and safe Halloween weekend!

🎃 This weekend is Halloween; we'd like to wish all our residents a happy and safe Halloween!

Here are a few tips to stay safe during the spooky season:
➡️ If your children are trick-or-treating, make sure to accompany them and be cautious of strangers.
➡️ Be mindful not to approach homes that show a 'No Trick or Treating' sign at their window.
➡️ Halloween can be a scary time for those who don't like surprise visits or calls. If you prefer not to be visited by trick-or-treators, West Midlands Police have a 'No Trick or Treating' card you can download and print to display in your window.
➡️ Wear bright clothing or costumes so motorists can spot you on busy roads
