So much summer fun in the sun

Youngsters made the most of the last few weeks of their summer holidays by attending a fun day which was held at Palacerigg Country Park on Wednesday, July 24.

The event, which was organised by North Lanarkshire Council’s play services, was attended by kids of all ages and their families, who were thrilled with the activities on offer.

And with the scorching temperatures, many of the youngsters were able to enjoy most of the outdoor activities.
