Summer Sports Day
Have fun with the family, the staff and the volunteers of the lighthouse on the last day of the Summer Holidays with our Summer Sports Day.

No one likes the summer holidays finishing, but it's always better if they can end on a high note. We like some fun too, so join the staff and volunteers of the lighthouse in some activities, with a sports day theme, including egg and spoon races, tug of war, sack races and lots more. Part of our Summer of Play activities.
