As the weather outside has been frightful this weekend we decided it felt like Christmas had finally arrived. Today we spent our crew session Christmas crafting in an attempt to make our crew room as festive as possible.
The first ‘job’ was to assemble our crew advent calendar. Lola, Chloe and Frida expertly coached in the boys, showing them exactly how to put the boxes together, whilst grappling with number stickers and the dreaded glue dots. Mrs Desborough will be filling the boxes with a range of Christmas treats for everyone to enjoy.
Then we shifted our focus to our wonderful crew mascot, Chunkz. He is now living in what can only be described as a Christmas cave, complete with his own light up Christmas tree, snow and icicles. He has also be joined by three furry friends in the form of polar bear (the names of these triplets are yet to be decided).
The boys were then given the challenge of producing the paper chains, while Lola and Frida tackled the stars and Chloe completed the ‘Merry Christmas’ banner.
We all left feeling a little more cheerful and Corey admitted he had really enjoyed spending time together in crew. So from everyone in crew Mandela, we wish you (an early) Merry Christmas!
