Even during the school holidays, Ripon Community House has been buzzing with life – and what a week it’s been!

 

We kicked things off with a very special celebration as Toy Library marked their 32nd birthday 🥳 with a party-inspired Storytime session. The room was full of little ones enjoying the fun, laughter, and plenty of imaginative play – and it was such a joy to see children exploring and playing in our newly transformed garden! 🌿It made the celebration even more special.

 

🎂 Happy Birthday, Toy Library! here’s to many more years of supporting local families and inspiring play.🧸📚

 

👉🏼Toy library runs every Thursday from 10am to 12pm at RCH -come along and join the fun!  

Later in the week, we welcomed Adult Learning at Harrogate College for their Community Learning and Social Event. This was a fantastic opportunity for visitors to:

🎙️We were also delighted to welcome Your Harrogate, who came along to cover the event and help share the word about the fantastic learning opportunities available right here in Ripon!

  

The event was made even more special by the presence of the incredibly talented 🎨 Davinder Madaher, who ran a watercolour art workshop. HIs artwork is nothing short of stunning, and the class produced some beautiful pieces under his guidance.

     

Of course our very own Anica couldn’t resist jumping in – paintbrush in hand, fully inspired! 🖌️💫 Her creative energy added even more colour to an already vibrant day.

   

💛 Thank you to everyone – new and familiar – who continues to support everything we do.

We appreciate you so much.
