Little Sutton Sapphires WI

Sapphires didn't hold a meeting in December, instead they had a Christmas Party at the Woodcote House Hotel. Forty  two of our Eighty two members attended this evening and we had fun. Santa came to visit us and gave us small gifts.  We sang songs and our own sapphire version of the Twelve Days of Christmas with actions off all members.... Raffles and a disco and merriment and fun

Several members of our WI have made wreaths/Banners/Knitted and Crochet Poppies. Some laminated ones and ceramic poppies have also been made. The Sapphire's have showered Little Sutton in Ellesmere Port with Poppies in remembrance of those killed in wars to enable us to live on.

Several members went to the Cinema in October. The went to watch Bridget Jones's Baby at the Vue Cheshire Oaks

Some of our members went to Ollie's Orchard in Delamere, where they where shown around and where able to see cider being made on site. Members could purchase fruit from their day out and also where given refreshments. Although the weather was awful, members enjoyed their outing

Our President invited us all to a get together to thank the committee for 10 months working together as a group to bring like minded women together in Little Sutton to enjoy each others company and to give everyone a chance to have a go at cooking, craft, knitting, outings etc. We had a fun filled evening.

October's meeting was Daniel Moss from Helsby with "Haunted Hunts" Daniel and his  team travel over the country looking to search buildings with a history of the paranormal. He gave members a talk, showed equipment used and a video of evidence gathered. Pictures show members who dressed up in Halloween outfits.

Charlie Bartlett was the speaker for the September meeting. He gave members an interesting talk about his adventures and his fund raising in Nepal to ensure young people gain the education and welfare to achieve more out of life.
