CHILDREN enjoyed a magical Christmas party when Disney characters and a magician called into the North Ormesby Community Hub.

The fun-packed afternoon saw scores of local children take over the centre on Derwent Street.

Magician Eric Leonard entertained the youngsters with his sleight of hand and his impressive balloon making skills.

Best friends, four-year-old India Wilson and five-year-old Evangelina Dinning, donned their Disney princess dresses to mingle with Minnie Mouse when she dropped into the party.

The special festive event also included a Santa’s grotto, festive disco, games, face painting, tombola, Christmas magic show, and arts and crafts.

As well as the festive fun, the centre offers on information on local public services, access to the internet, space for advice services, support for community groups, community meetings and activities, community safety events, early years and youth services, activities and support, as well as the Pavilion Project playgroup.
