PLAYGROUP - Hopscotch Pre-School Playgroup, Tarrington, have recently taken delivery of a play tractor and trailer slide to complete the farm-theme playground. The final piece of equipment was funded by a grant from the Local Network Fund for Children (Herefordshire Community Foundation) and has led to the completion of the playground for the use of the playgroup and village children. The playgroup is celebrating its 30th anniversary this summer, and is holding a party at Lady Emily Community Hall, Tarrington, on Saturday, July 9, from 2.30 to 4.30pm. There will be a bouncy castle, cakes and teas, an ice cream van, children's activities and a grand raffle. Organisers are hoping to contact all ex-pupils, staff and helpers, and particularly the handful of parents who set up Hopscotch in 1975 in the old village hall. For further information contact Natasha Gibson on 07929614017.
