STAY for Summer<br />
During the school summer holidays we organised<br />
a number of fun days out for the young people. We<br />
went to RUSH trampoline park, Coral Reef, Thorpe<br />
Park, Lagoona Waterpark and Go-Ape! We also had<br />
some craft activities such as tie dye and two sports<br />
days in Charvil. As well as the super fun activities<br />
we added some ‘Give Back’ days too. This is when<br />
the young people went litter picking and buying<br />
food for the Reading Food Bank! <strong>The</strong>se activities<br />
were just as popular as the others so they will<br />
hopefully become part of their culture.<br />
Satellites Summer Camp<br />
Last year was our first time taking young people to<br />
a Christian summer camp. <strong>The</strong>y loved it so much<br />
that we took half as many again this year! <strong>The</strong><br />

home for more details) happens at the Bath & West<br />
Showground in Shepton Mallet over 5 days. <strong>The</strong>re<br />

films, cheesy chips and loads more!<br />
