Sutton College’s BIG event is coming to town!

Debuting at Manor Park on Saturday 3 September, the BIG event promises a full day of entertainment for the whole family.

With so many things going on, it will be hard to know what to do first! Take time to peruse a fascinating selection of unique crafts available from independent craft merchants and local artists, discover home-made gifts and delight your taste buds with some delicious fine foods. There’ll be opportunities to treat yourself to health and beauty treatments, join in or just watch the many activities and demonstrations that will be on offer. Why not beat along to the rhythms of the African Drums or get your green fingers out for some gardening fun.

Man’s best friend will have their chance in the spotlight with our very own Dog Show. With awards celebrating all things canine, your beloved pet can walk away with an honoured title from being the prettiest pooch to the scruffiest hound, having the waggiest tail to the best party trick, make sure your family dog gets the recognition they deserve! Participants must complete a Dog Show Registration Form.

Local community groups will be there demonstrating some of the many fabulous services Sutton can offer its residents including local fitness groups, charities and gardening organisations. The Police and fire brigade will attend and if your little monsters/angels (delete as appropriate!) ask nicely, they will have the chance to explore a full size fire truck and meet some of our local unsung heroes. Sutton Library will be running rhyme and storytime sessions and  with games, sports activities, face painting, caricature artists, and entertainment provided by Radio Marsden (Sutton College’s Charity for 2011/12), you can be guaranteed a great day out.

Sutton College is proud to deliver what will be a day full of delights and, of course, will be on hand to offer advice on our courses with life changing opportunities. Retrain, up-skill, learn for pleasure or curiosity, Sutton College can help you realise your potential and learn more about something you have always been interested in!

The event will run from 10am -2pm. The full programme of events will be listed here shortly.

We look forward to seeing you there.
