A little update

BMXing
This was a fantastic activity for everyone and they all appeared to thoroughly enjoy themselves. There were two tracks, the first one was quite flat and was used to either prove how good they were or to gain more confidence in cycling before moving on. Those who were confident moved onto the other track, which had far more bumps and hills, while those who weren't confident were amazing at improving their bike riding skills.

Most memorable moment - seeing those who couldn't ride a bike without help to sprint down the final straight on their own.

BRASS RUBBING
According to Mrs Matthews, it's really quite simple. You just put the paper over the top and rub with a crayon. Despite it's simplicity Mrs Esser states they produced some quality artwork.

Most memorable moment - The moment of enlightenment when they realise there is a technique to it.

BLOCK PRINTING
During this inventive activity they place leaves over a tile, make an impression of it, paint it and stamp it to produce a print.

Most memorable moment - Paige being able to paint her hair blue and joining the Smurfs

BLIND TRAIL
During this activity the children are blindfolded and led around a maze full of sensory challenges and surprises

Most memorable moment - Seeing the children help each other, starting off a bit nervous and then desperate to have a second go.
