Hythe and Dibden Parish Council recently partnered with Hythe Primary School to create new Christmas bunting for Hythe village. Each pair of pupils designed their own pendant, lling it with colour, creativity, and plenty of Christmas cheer. e result is the bright and joyful bunting that now decorates Hythe High Street, helping to spread the festive spirit throughout the community. Hythe Primary was chosen for this project as a local school with strong community values, making it the perfect partner for this creative collaboration. e project was organised by Hythe and Dibden Parish Council as part of the Community Projects and Engagement O cer’s on-going work to bring people together and add some extra sparkle to Hythe over the festive season. Teachers at Hythe Primary shared that the children loved getting into the Christmas spirit and thinking about their favourite things during the holidays. Each class worked on their designs at the same time, creating a real sense of teamwork and excitement across the school. Even those who missed the rst session were given the chance to join in the following day - ensuring that everyone could take part and see their creativity represented in the nal display. Hythe and Dibden Parish Council hopes the bunting not only brings smiles to people’s faces, but also supports local businesses by encouraging residents and visitors to enjoy the High Street this Christmas. A huge thank you to Hythe Primary School for their fantastic e ort and enthusiasm - projects like this truly Designing the bunting The new bunting in Hythe High Street Lions Donate To Local Foodbank In Time For Christmas Romsey & Waterside Lions Club have made another donation of food to the Romsey Foodbank to help them re-stock their shelves with essential supplies, plus some Christmas goodies. e Lions continue to support two local foodbanks at regular intervals; the other one being the Waterside Foodbank, since the pandemic their donations to both have amounted to over £8,000.
