Joseph had learnt that hostel food is yummy. Anna has two wobbly teeth and had learnt how to model bears. Isaac did a Powerpoint at school and learnt that he was good at telling jokes in the hostel merrymoot. Magdalene had done thumb-printing and learnt how to make sugar arrows at school, and at Elfins this term she and Maia had learnt how to make a torch. Louis had learnt how to weave willow. Peter had learnt how to make clay penguins and Ava had learnt how to make icebergs from blue foam. Max had been to two school plays, during one of which someone sitting behind him had been sick. This term he had learnt how to make yummy biscuits from Fair Trade ingredients. Ya'arah had made a present for a friend, and at Elfins she had done coke-can cooking and eaten the vegetables she cooked. Nick had filled a flowerbed with manure, and had learnt to avoid muddy bogs at Shotover. Julie's three chickens had been eaten by a fox during the week, and at hostel she had learnt how to play a new game called Tails.
We then finished off our Snow Globes. During the week Julie had glued the baked polar bears to jam jar lids. We then filled the jars with water and white glitter, and glued on the lids. Hey presto - a Snow Globe!
After finishing the Snow Globes we played John's Smartie (basically eating as many smarties you can from a plate until you select 'John's smartie', which has been chosen by the other Elfins while you were out of the room), then did a treasure hunt in the playground looking for letters, which when rearranged spelt out the Woodcraft value of 'Co-operation'.
After Link Your Hands Together we all got an Easter egg to take home with us.
