Bouncy castles, arts and crafts, biscuit decorating, giant board games, face painting and "beat the goalie" were among activities enjoyed at the launch of Redbridge Tribe (Young United Synagogue) at Redbridge Synagogue. And while the youngsters played, their parents socialised over coffee and cakes.
Redbridge Tribe youth director Naomi Harris said there was "an incredible buzz throughout the afternoon". She looked forward to "engaging, educating and inspiring our young people" through future activities.
The Redbridge and surrounding area is also served by a Tribe group in Chigwell.
