Our Check in was – if you were a dog breed, which would you be and why? We got some interesting responses! James, I still can’t pronounce that dog breed!
We then had a bit of well being check in and a chat about what we’d been up to. Danny and Hubert have been passing the time baking. Hubert (as pictured below) has baked bread and Danny made some cupcakes and lemon drizzle cake (Mrs Hannam’s fave!).
We had Max the dog last week join us; this week we had Danny’s super cute cat Simmy!
We had a crew quiz, Danny was the winner with an impressive 18/20. Everyone did really well, some tricky questions in there.
Quizzy rascals.
James has made such a comeback with handing in lots of work he was behind on this week, well done James, I’d like to see you keep this up – and I will be checking 🙂
