  • Mad Hatters Tea Party Gallery

    UPDATE – 11th June

    The list is now closed for the Mad Hatters Tea Party planned for Saturday 20th June to be held at St Catherines house from 15:00

    Interest in attending has been more than expected so we have ended up with more ‘Bums than seats’. To that end if you have got a ‘clicky’ picnic table and some chairs and could bring them along could you let me know please?  We have arranged with Holly Burton that these could be dropped off at the venue from 12:00 on the Saturday. 

    Also if you can no longer make it then please tell me as seats are hotter than the England final in the world cup.

    I have just found out this morning that Catherington Infant School is holding their summer fair on the same day from 12:00 to 15:00 so the car parks opposite the school and church hall will probably be chockers. However, with it ending at 15:00 that should free up some space if you need to drive to our event.

    Given it’s been pretty wet lately we will be watching the forecast and will make a command decision next Friday (19th) PM if it look like torrential rain on Saturday. If you do not hear from me it will be all systems go!

    Original Text:

    CVRA intend to have a Summer event this year based on Alice in Wonderland´s ¨Mad Hatter´s Tea Party¨. More details in the attached flyer.

    We plan to have one long table with seating either side. We will provide cups, saucers, cutlery, side plates, tea and coffee. We would ask you to provide cake for sharing and any other snacks you like. You can bring your own beverages but please also bring drinking vessels.

    Please bring your own camping/picnic chairs if possible since we may have more people than seats.

    Activities in the form of Rabbit racing ( similar to Horse racing ), Croquet and a tug of war – as well as an appropriate ´photo booth´.

    Please note that there is only pedestrian access to St Catherine´s.

    Please note CVRA members and guests only,
