This term we began with a new group and in September we had our first meeting in the church. We tried our hand at hand bell ringing, we filled out a Pioneer form that would tell everyone all about who we were and what we like doing…. And hardest of all, to qualify as a Pioneer we had to blow a bubble with bubble gum!

In October we filled shoe boxes will all kinds of goodies for Christmas. They went to Eastern Europe and we all brought £3 to help cover the cost of the transportation. You could choose if you wanted to fill a box for a girl or boy and you could fill it with toys, colouring pencils and paper, soap, and toothpaste and sweets. We had to cover our boxes with Christmas paper.

And then at the end of October we had a Light and Dark Disco. We had a go at eating an apple in a bowl of water, having a ‘bad hair evening’ and dancing….

In November we went for ‘A walk in the dark’. It was pitch dark but a beautiful evening and we walked about 2 miles. Didn’t see any wildlife but that was probably because they heard us coming….

And then in December we walked down to the White Hart in Stoke for a meal. We mad masses of chips and chicken nuggets and sausages. Then we all had an icecream.

January 2008:

We had the The Ultimate Challenge! We made our own O’s and X’s + a board and then we had to play people on our table. To see who would win, lose or draw. And worst of all we had to play Dodie. It was ok if you drew or won (only 2 out of 23) but if you lost! Well!! In the end though she said that Jesus turned things upside down when we was alive and the 4 who lost got crisps and sweets and the rest of us only got sweets!
£3 – 6.30 -8.00pm in the Village Centre

 

February we ‘Rocked around the clock’ and learnt how to rock and roll…. It was fantastic fun and we all had a go….

In March we will make MSMs – as this goes onto the website we are unsure what this means, Dodie won’t tell us so will have to wait and see!

And in May we have a Surprise Night – yet another mystery.
