Date
set for official opening of Burnham's new children's centre
 Burnham-On-Sea's
new
£500,000 Octopus Children's Centre will be officially
opened next week.
The
centre - which has been developed by Somerset County Council in
partnership with Sedgemoor District Council, the local parish
council and other groups - will be opened at 2pm on Friday July
11th with a celebration and a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The
Children's Centre is on the same site as Burnham Infant School
and the day will see pupils participating in various activities
for the afternoon.
There
will be a country dancing display by pupils, as well as a singing
group, official speeches, and a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Local
County Councillor Rosemarie Parsons told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "This
Children’s Centre will be a valuable addition to Burnham.
The new facilities will be a key point of access to services for
our local parents and children."
"I
am pleased that we have reached this stage and am grateful for
the hard work of the local steering group and officers from Somerset
County Council."
Burnham-On-Sea.com
revealed in April that building work had been completed.
