Thanks to the Moondance trio for bringing music to Elmhurst over the summer.

We've had a busy few weeks, knitting ladybirds, dragonflies, bees, frogs and flowers, making some Rocky Road and celebrating National Cream Tea Day with our own handpainted mugs!

Four double tier cake stands filled with scones spread with jam, cream and fresh strawberries, next to mugs decorated in different colours with drawings of flowers, cricket pitch and families and people's names. Rocky Road still in its baking tray, studded with marshmallows. The Persona and Elmhurst logos are at the bottom.
