CV Weekly Update

Another awesome day behind us! The morning began with some colourful face painting, followed by our meeting where we shared news, discussed the day ahead and brainstormed exciting ideas for the summer fair stalls. Then it was time for the baking project – the children carefully measured all the ingredients and mixed up a delicious sponge cake batter themselves before popping it in the oven to bake.

While waiting for their cake, the children spotted a sprinkler in the field and couldn't resist some spontaneous water play – a great way to cool down! This sparked so much enthusiasm that the water fun continued all afternoon as they created their very own imaginative water park. They designed everything from the entrance scanner, changing room and shower area to thrilling attractions like a bubbling cauldron, a slippy slide and even a rock'n'roll slide! The creativity didn't stop there – they filmed and edited a promotional video for their water park using CapCut, proudly showing their work afterwards.

Between all this excitement, there were grasshoppers to observe (safely released after), energetic races around the field, bricks to build with, chess games to play and even an ambitious jigsaw puzzle attempt.

We ended our day sharing favourite moments in the circle, agreeing on next week’s plan and, of course, enjoying the sponge cake they’d baked earlier, now topped with homemade whipped cream, fresh fruit, jam and a frozen banana ‘ice’ layer. Yummy!
