The Village Hall Committee meets every month.

The latest BYO (Bring Your Own nibbles and wine) quiz took place on Friday 21st May and was a huge success, raising £204.50 towards the upkeep of the Village Hall.

The quizzes were started in 2000 and have been steered through the last ten years by an extremely tolerant quizmaster Harry Bruford.

The Village Hall received a grant for £2,200 from Norfolk Community Foundation to buy equipment to show films.This equipment has now been installed and our first show was on 28 November 2008 the film was Mamma Mia! and we had an audience of 65, all of whom greatly enjoyed the performance. The 2009-10 season started on 16 September 2009 with The Ladykillers. All our feature films are preceded by an episode of Shaun the Sheep.

The new Big Screen has, so far, been a great success. In April 2010, as well as our regular monthly film, we screened "Finding Nemo" and "Up" for the younger children of the Village. They took place on two Wednesday mornings in place of "Sure Start" which closed for the Easter Holiday. Both days were extremely well attended and the children thoroughly enjoyed coming to the pictures!! It is very likely we will continue with the children's films during the Summer Holidays

Following the article in the April 2010 Newsletter, a committee has been formed to decide on future Film Shows. The committee members are Harriet Baker, Pam Baker, Julia Ball and Norman Dovey.

A meeting has been held and, after a lengthy discussion, it was decided to show films on a more regular basis, fortnightly to begin with and, if successful, weekly showings during certain times of the year.

Additional grants has been given by Norfolk Community Foundation to put in a loop system to assist the hearing impaired and for black-out curtains so that films can be shown in daylight hours.

New Christmas decorations were very kindly given to the Village Hall are an added attraction to the Hall.
