The Love and Kindness Trail 2021

14th February is traditionally the day when we tell our nearest and dearest how much we love them. This year we all need some love and kindness so the Parish Council, in conjunction with Neighbourhood Watch, have arranged for various houses in the village to decorate their windows.

There are 15 windows on the actual trail map, but anyone is welcome to join in the fun by decorating a window. Due to a kind donation made by a resident there are prizes available for the best window display and also for each completed trail map with the correct unscrambled words. Hopefully this will add some cheer for all on their daily walks and help raise the spirits, as we flood Cassington with positive images of hearts, rainbows and alike! 

The displays will be up from Sunday 14th Feb and for all of the next half term week. See the map (below) of which houses to visit to spot the hidden letters, and details of the competition and how to enter.

There will also be some paper copies available in the Paper shop in Elm’s road from Friday 12^th Feb.

Please get your entries for the unscrambled words in by 20th February to vickyt@pink-sky.co.uk.

The window display winners will be announced on the Cassington Village Facebook page and in next month's edition CAWN.

Ameer's Harry Potter Adventure Story

Ameer wrote a story based around his Lego model!  

Can you have a go at making up a story using one of your toys too?

Harry was sleeping in his cosy, warm bed when suddenly Hedwig came screeching in through the window carrying a letter.

He carefully opens the letter and he is shocked to see what Albus Dumbledore has written.

He rushes frantically to Albus Dumbledore who is in his office.  The office is large and full of hidden secrets like a trapdoor. There are lots of secret books that have never been opened for years and never been read by a dursley. 

“Hello Harry, I'm glad to see you,” Dumbledore said excitedly as he held a secret note.

“ I got your letter about something being wrong”, said Harry.

“There is something mysterious about the clocktower. Its face keeps changing from Victor Crumb’s magic tests”, whispers Dumbledore.

Harry leaves the office feeling worried and goes out of the clock tower to investigate the enchanted clock face. Harry sees something strange. Victor Cumb is practising his magic.

Harry swiggles his wand at the enchanted clock face and mutters a spell. 

As soon as Harry does the magic, the enchanted clock face becomes normal again. Victor apologises for testing magic on the clock face.

Harry and Victor jump on their broomsticks and fly off.
