So whether you got dressed up in fancy dress, had open air adventures, played music, or went litter picking, we were there for it all at the youth centres of South Tyneside.
Were you pictured next to a giant rig or having a tea party? Did you go marching for Children in Need?
Take a look and see if you can recognise anyone in our retro reminders of photos from youth centres across South Tyneside.
