Orienteering

This week we decided to have a go at some orienteering at the coppice. The children formed two teams and completed three different courses.

Trampolining

Hair up.

Hair down.

Ham sandwiches

Wendy showed us how to meditate. Apparently you sit with your legs crossed and chant the word ham for a long time. Very odd! But then again she is wearing tie dye.

National Recycling Week 2008

This week is National recycling week.

I'm quite good at recycling already so I don't think there's an awful lot more I can recycle. I think instead I'm going to try and cut down on buying things (mainly food) that comes in non-recyclable packaging.

I found a couple of interesting websites to go with the recycling theme.

YP Centenary

On Saturday evening Levi took part in the YP band centenary concert at church with Steven Mead and the SWT Woodfalls band.

Ours was the first corps in the Salvation Army to start a young peoples band. On Sunday morning Malcolm the current YP band leader got all the previous band leaders lined up on the stage, together they covered over 50 years of the bands history.

And on Sunday morning he sang in church for the first time with the singing company.

Also in the picture is Theo's girlfriend. She's the blond one holding the microphone.

He's going to be singing in another concert on Friday.
