May day celebrations took place in Walton by the river on the 1st May, and were organised by the RCSherriff Trust who asked me to take photographs of the days events it was great fun. Children from across Elmbridge made masks and joined in a spectacular parade along the river Thames tow path they were then treated to a display of traditional Morris dancing and live music.
After the parade children participated in may pole dancing followed by a delightful concert from the promenade choir with a mixture of traditional folk songs and stage hits.
In the afternoon children from Chandlers Field School, Bell Farm School, Groveland's School and Cleves School gave performances of traditional folk dancing.
The day finished off with dancing to a live folk band with everyone present a fantastic way to celebrate May day.
More photographs of the days events can be found at www.phototed.co.uk under the galleries section (will be posted this week)
