What a day to keep in mind. Bursting with fun, games, prizes, food, fellowship, and memories. The Rochdale Filipino Anglo Community’s (RFAC) summer family day provided a significant experience and fun-filled activities at St Patrick’s School. Filipino families in Rochdale, England as well as many invited friends enjoyed a get together to commence the school holidays with a summer fiesta and indoor games. Together with their respective parents, the kids took delight by playing various Filipino games and enjoyed the company of other kids after a long school term that ended late last month.

The half term break from schoolwork gave me, my family, and close friends the chance to enjoy the sunshine and the excitement of a ‘not-so-usual’ activities within the week. There was a couple of parties, invitations to attend, and ample time to spend with my sons; Matthew and Thomas. Although the whole time was completely busy, it was honestly well worth the fun, the laughter, the chatting, the fellowship, and of course the food.
