“Despite the bad weather the children were eager to listen and learn,” said Sgt Styles Maome, communications officer for the Primrose police.
“After speaking to the children we handed out sweets, snacks, toys and drawing books.”
Maome thanked the day’s sponsors Chubby Chums for the Children’s Homes and Avril Elizabeth Home for helping to make the day a success.
