25th Anniversary Garden Party

On Saturday 18^th May Bridge Primary celebrated its 25^th Anniversary with what was supposed to be a Garden Party.  On this occasion the weather was not kind to us and a lot of the attractions were moved indoors.  Despite the rain our pupils and parents attended in large numbers.  The afternoon was a great success and parents and children alike enjoyed a magic show, birds of prey demonstration, competitions, music and a BBQ.  The highlight of the afternoon and the grand finale was the release of 1200 red and yellow balloons.  

Enjoy some snapshots of the day's events in the slideshow below
