Free family fun day celebrates Winnie The Pooh's 100th birthday

With the much-loved character Winnie the Pooh celebrating his 100th birthday this year, Misterton Parish Council is organising a free family fun day on Saturday 1 August from 2– 6pm on the Old School Field (off Wharf Road).

There will be a range of activities for young and old: story-telling in a 100 Hundred Acre Wood, a children’s fancy dress competition (for those up to Y6), a colouring competition for under 6s and write your own Winnie the Pooh story for 6-11s.

Then there’s hog roast and bar, live music, and raffle. A children’s entertainer will be there and Parish and District Councillor Hazel Brand will present the Parish Council’s Village Champion Awards 2025/26.

Pick up the picture for the colouring competition and template for the short story from Misterton Library or e-mail [email protected] and have them sent to you.

Anyone is welcome to dress up - come as your favourite character - but competition prizes are only for children.
