Marianna is on the Days Lane Primary Parents Association which puts on the school's annual fireworks display, so when they needed extra hands, of course we jumped at the opportunity to help.

And what a fun and colourful evening it was!

We were assigned to the non-stop-busy Glow Stall, where neon wands and rainbow light sabres sold faster than you can say 'Let it glow!'

After a whirlwind hour of seeing children's faces light up (literally), it was time for the main event... we grabbed mugs of hot chocolate and mulled wine, tasty burgers and hot dogs* and headed onto the school field to enjoy the fireworks.

After the last sparkling rocket faded we packed away the stand and said our goodbyes.

Well done to Marianna and the team for a glowing event. Please can we come back and help again next year? And well done Frazer on your very first GoodGym task. Great to have you as part of the GG Bexley posse.
