So, once again we've been on the go since 9am this morning. We took our last walk to the Ruth Centre, to be greeted by a bunch of little uns ready for a day of fun and games. We started off in the football court, again playing football, parachute games and various other things(very tiring after little amounts of sleep and lots of sun.) The children then came up to the classroom where we sang some songs (which they joined in with!) Dave and Rosie retold the story of Moses, managing to get Jon to fall over- again. We then did craft number one, the parting of the sea on paper. We had to decorate 3 wooden stick men (the children were okay with this, but Jenny made Rosie, Rosie made Jenny- with THE doctor- Elle made herself dressed up as pikachu. After we played musical statues we started on craft number two, making a Moses basket by weaving coloured paper and folding into a pretty box- which some children managed to add a baby Moses to! We ended on some songs and said our final goodbyes to the children, and gave them lots of sweets (they seemed happy!)
We then had lunch, and went back to the Church to have an hour nap- and one hour out of our really smelly t-shirts that we've worn for four days!
We then went to another gypsy Church, Bolintin. Here, we redid the activities of Daniel and the Lions Den. The children were a lot calmer than those from the Ruth Centre, which was nice, but it was a really hot day in a very small Church which made it challenging. We are now all refreshing ourselves before having a worship session in about half an hour.
I have to say, on a personal note, I've really enjoyed this week so far and am really looking forward to the trip to the mountains tomorrow to see more of the country! (even though we have to be awake for breakfast at 6am-EEK!)
SEE YOU ALL BACK IN ENGLAND- Lizzie Sheridan:D
