James added: "This culture and leisure day was really enjoyable. The children threw themselves into both the physical activities in the park in the morning and the craft aspects in the afternoon. All of them can be proud of the way they conducted themselves and with the outcome of their crafts."For information about further Torridge sports programmes contact the culture and leisure team on (01237) 428737.
