PORINGLAND WOMEN'S INSTITUTE




We had a very enjoyable meeting in December.  We invited several other Institutes to join us and we had a lovely buffet followed by a funny mini panto starring some of our members.  This was followed by singing some carols.
Our next meeting is on Wednesday 13 February at 7.30pm in the Community Centre when John Henson will be coming and giving a talk with slides on Madagascar.  If, like me, you had heard of the Island but didn't know where it was  situated, on looking up the Internet, it is situated in the Indian Ocean, near Mozambique and is the 4th biggest island in the world with a very diverse climate.  Should be a fascinating evening.
JUMBLE SALE   23 February
Our next Jumble Sale is on Saturday 23 February from 10.30am to 12.30 pm in the Community Centre.  There will be the usual stalls, including books, tombola and coffee/tea and scones/cakes in the cafe. Come early as by 12.30 most of the good items had been snapped up.  See you there!
Visitors are always welcome and if there are any queries, please contact Veronica Brett, President on 01508 493029 or Lesley Sanders, Secretary on 01508 492155.
