Operation Christmas Child

We managed to get 61 boxes this year. That is 11 more than last year! These boxes will go to Bosnia. We hope to get more next year.

We would like to thank one of the explorers Nans for knitting most of these hats.

BBC Newcastle Tour

At the weekend 15 explorers took part in a tour round BBC Newcastle. They showed us the studios, offices and the gallery - where they do all the technical bits we don't understand. We also did an off-air broadcast using the basic equipment that you would need.

"...and tonight's broadcast was brought to you by chickens"

DofE Bronze Weekend

At the weekend 5 groups set out to complete their Bronze expedition near Morpeth. They had to demonstrate their leadership and map reading abilities to pass the assessment. It is a 2 day expedition over 25km and a one night camp. They all passed expedition part of the DofE Bronze award.

Everybody loves rainbows!
