Children’s Disco & Carnival Princess Saturday 16th June 2012
Great fun was had by all when Ashington Carnival Princess was chosen at a Children’s Disco which was held in Ashington Community Centre. The Disco was very well attended and everyone had a fantastic time dancing and joining in the dance competitions which was organised by Just 4 Kids Disco. There was a raffle, a tuck shop and some refreshments for the adults.
The Ashington Carnival Princess 2012 is Sarah Shaw age 10, and her two Attendants are Scarlet Marshall age 6 and Patience Sigston age 11. And the Pageboys are Sam Holden age 6, Lewis Thomas age 8 and Matthew Wieland age 5.
The Judge was a member of staff from Fowlers Estate Agents who said it was not easy as there were so many children to choose from and they were all special.
