The youth club will be offering lots of activities: sport, pool, table tennis, badminton, indoor tennis, hockey, football, jewellery making/craft activities, hair and nail beauty. We try and offer activities that will appeal to both girls and boys, but for sure the most popular activity will be the new Wii play station with sports software & dancemat that will appeal to all.

AVON TYRELL ACTIVITIES WEEKEND
Avon Tyrell Activities Weekend
Friday 25th to Sunday 27th September 2009
Bishopdown Farm Youth Club members had an exciting action-packed weekend at the Avon Tyrell Activities Centre in the New Forest. Activities included canoeing, mountain biking, Adventure Challenge assault course and swimming. Giant Chess and board games were also on offer as well as a chance to ‘bogie on down’ at the Saturday night disco! The weekend was funded by a grant from Wiltshire Young People Opportunity Fund (WYPOF) to whom we are extremely grateful. It was great to see how the young people really challenged themselves and developed new skills and gained self-confidence. Lots of fun was had by all with great memories to take home!

JONATHAN THE JESTER
Jonathan the Jester teaches Circus Skills
Members of the Bishopdown Farm Youth Club were recently treated to an evening of Circus entertainment. Local children’s artiste, Jonathan the Jester visited the Youth Club to teach the young people a variety of circus skills. These included tight-rope walking, unicycling, juggling, spinning plates, Diablo spinning and walking on stilts! A great time was had by all - in fact Jonathan the Jester was so popular, the kids are keen to have him back for a Christmas special!
Jonathan the Jester does a variety of circus packages including children’s parties and circus workshop. www.tabletopcircus.co.uk
JONATHAN will be back at the Youth Club on Friday 29 January 2010 to hold another Circus Workshop
