Chinese New Year
This year is the Year of the Fire Horse, a rare and powerful zodiac combination that appears only once every 60 years!
To celebrate this special occasion, Craft & Social have been working on a fun project exploring each of our members’ zodiac signs and what they might say about their personalities. It’s sparked plenty of interesting - and often very funny discoveries.
On Tuesday 17th, Craft & Social have arranged a special Chinese lunch for our students, featuring sweet & sour chicken, chicken in black bean sauce, and of course, plenty of prawn crackers.

Walking group - Burnsall
Can you figure out what's going on in this picture?
The walking group chose to kick off their boots and refresh their feet in the river at Burnsall during a summer hike.
You guessed it... a water fight!! It was a blast and definitely helped us cool down!
The walk offered some amazing view along the way.
