Today was an arts and crafts session.

I showed members how to make flowers out of pink tissue paper and I also showed them how to make a boat out of paper. All members enjoyed making these and using colours to paint their boats.

The members were then asked to talk about a happy/sad or interesting event from their past. We heard some interesting stories.

The session then followed with exercise to music. As a change I played some reggae music which was really enjoyed. We did our usual singing/dancing which then followed by activities. I introduced a new game today - bowls which members enjoyed in addition to the table tennis and golf putting.

The session finished with a couple of jokes.

Thank you to Theresa our volunteer for helping today.
