We've just framed up the portrait prints that were taken of the winners of the Mennyms hunt competition held during festival week. They look great and we hope our 3 lucky winners like them.

The Mennym Family have been working hard in Ryde Library and had hoped to take part in the Carnival tomorrow 27 August but Grandpa Vernon has been checking the weather reports, which are not very good. Safety and staying dry is very important!
The Mennym taxi will be out tomorrow and who knows where this extraordinary family will end up. Hint: think of Carnival route and check that first!

Can it be?! The last issue of Under Cover! Here it is folks, Under Cover 6, wrapping up our smashing project... for the time being..... We've had such a great time doing this project and you'll see lots of 'Thank you's' in the broadsheet to the array of creative, positive and supportive people who've been part of it. Hard copies are available from Ryde Library.
