Youth

Westham Parish Council holds regular free events for children in the Parish aged 5 to 16 in the school holidays. In the past this has included dance sessions and mobile skate ramps.

The next event will be at Stone Cross Amenity Hall in Stone Cross School on Wednesday 7th April from 10am to 12pm.

It is a free Arts and Crafts Morning with lots of messy play and electronic dance mats. All children in the Parish are welcome but children under 8 require an adult to supervise them.

Please also bring any drinks your children might require.

Please do come, the event is held in conjunction with Wealden County Council.

The Clerk of the Parish Council visits each of the three schools in the Parish to tell the children about the work of the Parish Council. This provides an excellent opportunity for the children to tell her about any changes they would like to see in their area and how they feel things could be improved.

Ideas are then taken to the next Full Council Meeting and considered by Parish Councillors.

This work is ongoing and is now used as Case Study by Action in Rural Sussex.
