A Picnic for you

Dear Ella,

We're going to be having a bit of a do for you - a picnic the day after your 22nd birthday, in a place that meant a huge amount to you and made you very happy - Ashton Park School, and guess what there's going to a tree and a bench with your name on!  Think that's good.

Lots of love

Hi everyone,

All sorted for Saturday 19 July - for anyone who would like to come along.

The venue is Ashton Park School - sixth form centre.  Park in the main school car park and follow signs for the sports centre - all should then become obvious

Anytime from 1pm.

Bring a picnic, things to sit on and if you are so inclined - "outdoor toys".

Around 3pm we will gather around Ella's bench and tree, say a few words and release purple balloons into the soaring blue summer skies.

Other things to do (if you would like to):

Bring a purple ribbon and tie it to Ella's tree/bench - she loved purple
Wander round the lovely Ashton Park playing fields
Go into the sixth form centre where a mural of Ella's artwork is being set up.

Most of all - just come and gather and catch up with friends and family and say "Happy Birthday" to Ella - in a place where she was always so happy.

With love
Jo

PS - even if its raining and blowing a gale - we will still gather as we will have access to the sixth form common room.  

Whatever the weather - we will also have access to loos!
