The Olympic torch comes to Peckham - 26/07/12

It was a real family occasion in Camberwell and Peckham today as parents and children lined the streets to welcome the Olympic torch to Peckham. Lots of people had made their own flags and torches so there was not just one torch, there were hundreds - everyone wants to play their part!
