Last Brownies
Last night was Katie's last session at her Brownies as she is now moving up to Guides. The Brownies had an awards ceremony for the achievements over the year. Katie was lucky enough to win the pack's shield for being the best Brownie for the year. The Brown Owl sent out a message to all parents telling them of who won the awards and wrote this about Katie -
Brownie Achievement Shield
The award is given to one of the Brownies who in our opinion has excelled in Brownie responsibilites. She has always behaved responsibly at meetings and is excellent at listening and following instructions. She is polite and courteous, kind and thoughtful to others, some might say an almost perfect Brownie.
Ooh proud Mummy night !!
Katie's Band
Having only just started learning the flute in October last year Katie has already progressed onto joining a woodwind band. For two weekends running they were performing. Firsly in the town centre in Sunny Saturday, and next at South Hill Park on an outdoor stage. It was great to watch Katie play.
Projects
Both Lucy and Katie have had projects to complete recently which have ended with some expert artwork by the whole family.
Firstly Katie and her friend did a project on Greece and they wanted a typical greek house made which we copied from a library book.
Then Lucy did a project on Castles after a visit to Warwick Castle. And yes you guessed it we had to make a castle. Not too bad an attempt but not quite defendable I think !!
Climbing
Wow are you ready for this lot, having had a few PC problems I am sooo behind on blog pictures so here goes for several of what we have been up to recently.
On one of visits to Chessington Katie asked if she could have a go at the climbing wall. Having never seen her do it wondered if she would make it to the top. Oh boy of course she did, it may have taken a few attempts but as the park was quiet we were allowed as many goes as we liked and Katie could climb up more than one side. She was very determined to reach the top !!
