Raring2go! Esher & Weybridge

5 Wednesday 4th August Playday 2021 This year’s theme is Summer of Play , recognising the challenges of children and young people over the past year, and the need to enjoy time for play. Wed 4th – Wednesday 11th August Rose Theatre, Kingston Zog Large in size and keen in nature, Zog is eager to win a golden star at Madam Dragon’s school, where dragons learn all the things that dragons need to know. Zog tries so very hard, perhaps too hard, and he bumps, burns and roars his way through years one, two and three. Luckily, the plucky Princess Pearl patches him up ready to face his biggest challenge yet…a duel with knight, Sir Gadabout the Great! www.rosetheatre.org Sat/Sun 7th - 8th, 14th - 15th August Loxwood Joust Step back in time and experience the verve and vigour of a world where lives were harsh and hearts were passionate at this unique, fun and educational day out for all the family! loxwoodjoust.co.uk 25th August - 5th September Paralympics 2020 As with the main Olympics, the Paralympic Games 2020 runs in 2021.
