Christmas is Coming!

December 7, 2011

Well, it’s nearly upon us, the festive season is kicking in to full swing and decorations and lights are starting to go up around the Oxley Woods development, and the wider Oxley Park area.

We just wanted to take this opportunity to wish all our fellow residents and the workers still here in high winds and tough conditions building more homes, all the best for the Christmas season and best wishes for the New Year.

Here’s hoping that last years Christmas conditions return, as shown below in this photo taken in December 2010!

Winter at Oxley Woods

Oxley Park parks arrive!

July 24, 2011

Children (and grown ups) have been overjoyed and over-exercised this week as finally Oxley Park can live up to its name as several of the play areas along the linear parks which run through the estate opened up for play time, just in time for the summer holidays!

It’s been absolutely terrific to see children young and old out and about, and our kids have met many new friends as they’ve made their way from park to park every day.

Apparently plans were slightly changed after some objections from residents elsewhere on the estate, which means we have a play park, pond and parkland outside our property now, and it’s absolutely brilliant. The way the play areas are dotted through the estate makes any foot journey more fun, if MUCH longer, for anyone with kids, or a bit of adventure and fun in their souls.

Brilliant news all round.

Oxley Woods Big Lunch a big success

June 18, 2011

The first Oxley Woods Big Lunch took place a little while back, and it was an all out success.

Members of the community, both long standing and more recently settled residents came together, despite the dubious weather, and a jolly good time was had by all, young and old!

Many thanks must go to the team of people who helped put the day together, I hope you all feel very proud of your contribution to our fledgling community!

You can check out some photos of the day via our Flickr link at the top of the page, and even more over at a fellow resident’s flickr page.

Setting up for those wanting to take part starts at 12pm. Festivities begin from around 12:30pm.

Bring your own food/BBQ/drink… Anything you’d like to contribute. All residents should have had a leaflet through the door from the organisers.

Let’s hope the weather is good! :D

Discussion, as ever, in the Oxley Woods forum.

Oxley Woods big lunch

May 22, 2011

Plans are afoot in Oxley Woods, and this time not of the scheming house-builder kind. Residents are clubbing together to organise an Oxley Woods Big Lunch.

If you’re interested in joining in, please make a visit to the residents’ forum and see what you can do to take part, even if it’s just a case of bringing yourself along to join in!
