UPDATE ROYSTON F1RST UPDATE | OCTOBER 2020
NEW Children’s Town Trail and Warm-up Competition is a Big Hit! We are pleased to report that Coronavirus did not stop Royston First from running a summer children’s trail this year. In fact, we upped our game – with a brand new ‘Safari’ theme and a drawing competition to precede it. 8-year-old Phoebe Rogers, from Royston was the winner of the colouring competition, which saw her design become the branding for the Safari Trail. The Trail ran for the whole month of August, rather than on just the one day, to enable social distancing due to Covid. It offered a free, fun and safe activity for children to get involved in with parents and carers. Participants were tasked with finding information about animals who had ‘escaped’ from Shepreth Wildlife Park. The answers were hidden in local shop windows and the children
answered the questions following the trail round the town. Two family tickets to Shepreth Wildlife Park were up for grabs in two different age categories. These were won by 7-year-old, Tom Kelliher, from Royston and 9-year-old, Sophie Saunders, from Loughton. It was very difficult to choose winners and we had amazing pictures from all of the entries, which were then displayed in the library windows.
