Dozens of members of Girlguiding Isle of Wight from the Puckpool Rainbow and Brownie sections enjoyed a visit to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway in Havenstreet recently.
All the girls and their leaders journeyed on the ‘Santa Special’ steam train for what has now become an annual event.
As well as the train ride, there was a fun magic show from David Randini, rides on the carousel, a visit to the fairy light sparkling Winter Wonderland with special ‘Frozen’ displays, drinks, chocolate, mincepies, a display from Haven Falconry and of course a visit to Santa Claus.
All the girls seemed to enjoy the Haven Falconry display where there was the opportunity to enjoy the thrills and excitement of falconry and other birds of prey which gave a unique insight into the art of falconry and how birds of prey exist in the wild.
Every Rainbow and Brownie received a Christmas present from Santa Claus and some of the Rainbows assisted Randini with his magic tricks.
This Girlguiding event was planned by Ann-Marie Kitcher, Puckpool Rainbows Commissioner.
