Film Club
Lapworth Film Club was set up in 2011 by a small group of then Committee Members of the Lapworth Village Hall Committee to provide an enjoyable social event and funding opportunity for maintenance and improvements to this important village amenity. On advice from the auditor, it became a separate organisation but all profits after expenses and licence fees are donated to Lapworth Village Hall.
Film Club is on the last Monday of the month from September to April (excluding December) at 7.15pm for 7.45pm at Lapworth Village Hall.
There is a bar and the £5 taken at the door includes free refreshments at the interval.
Besides showing films carefully chosen by a small committee, the evening provides an occasion for people to meet where they might not meet otherwise.
Films are advertised in the Parish Magazine, on posters on the village noticeboards, and on a large poster opposite the Village Shop.
Films are also shown to Elderberries, Preschool and Lapworth School PTA on request.

The Penguin Lessons
Tom Michell’s 2015 memoir chronicles his experience as a British teacher who travelled to South America to teach at a boys’ boarding school in Argentina in the 1970s. On a trip to Uruguay, he visited a beach in the Uruguayan resort of Punta del Este where he stumbled on many dead penguins soaked with oil. He noticed one penguin still alive, and so he decided to rescue it, bringing it to his hotel to clean and feed it. After that, the penguin would not leave him and kept following him; eventually he took it back to the school, where it became a popular pet
