What an incredible final session before tomorrow’s Barking and Dagenham Carnival! The room was bursting with carnival spirit, laughter, and creativity as everyone came together to support each other in completing their stunning costumes.

It was heart-warming to see such unity and joy, with even the sounds of the nearby playgroup adding to the buzz. The children’s creativity was, as always, truly outstanding; their energy added an extra spark to the day!

A huge thank you to our brilliant carnival tutors Fredo, Kathleene, and Jenny, for dedicating yet another day to guiding and inspiring us. Your expertise and enthusiasm are what make these sessions so special.

We can’t wait to see all the beautiful creations in full carnival glory tomorrow at Barking Town Square!

And the celebrations don’t stop there, next week we’ll be holding our Celebration and Awards Event with the group, and we’re so excited to come together once more to recognise everyone’s hard work and creativity!
