Saturday at Arthog – Mrs Johnson’s Group

We’ve had a day of sunshine today right up until teatime which was perfect for a morning on the sit-on-tops and an afternoon of raft building which saw some fantastic teamwork! Well done Frankie, Seb W, Kieran, Will L,  Javier, Oliver K, George, Violet, Daisy and Lara. Keep an eye out tomorrow for photos of rock climbing!

Arthog Day 1

 

We’ve been really lucky with the weather today and, although the skies were grey, the rain held off. It was quite blustery at Fairbourne which was perfect weather for flying kites. The nightline on Friday evening was memorable to say the least and at one point 3 groups merged into 1 with a few stragglers creating their own course much to the staff’s delight! We are looking forward to a full day of activities tomorrow and will post some more photos tomorrow evening.

Easter Egg Hunt at the Co-op

A group of children visited the Co-op this morning to search for 100 carefully-hidden creme eggs.  They seemed easy to spot at first but the last few proved extremely difficult to find! It was lovely to see the children helping each other and sharing out their eggs so that everyone had 10 each to take home. Thank you again to Laura and staff for inviting us to the Co-op.

A Fantastic Gardening Day at Bicton!

Who needs Ground Force when you have families, friends and staff like this?!

Thank you to everyone who gave up their time today for our gardening and DIY day. As you can see from the photo gallery, it was a really productive day and the showers didn’t put anyone off. The bacon rolls, cakes and cuppas kept everyone going and the turnout of volunteers was so good buy valium suppositories that a second trip to the Co-op was needed to restock supplies! There are far too many names to mention but I’m sure everyone who was there will agree that Graham and family need a big thank you ?

There is still plenty to do so we will be having another gardening day in a few weeks time – hope to see you there!

Marathon Ready!! – News from Nikki

Latest news from Nikki…

Well this week I did my last long run of 19 miles!!

According to many Marathon running plans 18-20 miles is a good guide. So I went for 19. I was advised not to do more as I have had some problems with  my Achilles and my foot arch. So for the next 3 weeks (yes, that’s all that I have left!!?) i will be doing what they call tapering and hoping to remain injury free! 

I am looking forward to joining all the children on Friday with their mini-marathon. Tell them they can prepare for it by: 1. Eating a good balanced tea the night before; 2. Get a good night’s sleep and 3. Eat a good breakfast in the morning. 

I will be doing the same thing on my marathon day too. 

Please can you remind them to BRING THEIR SPONSOR FORMS WITH THEM ON FRIDAY. Just one evening left to ask friends, family and neighbours for sponsors! 

My fundraising has been great and I now have just over £1000. If you’d like to show your support the link is

Every £ helps, and really motivates me also.
