Mayor Visit & Kathryn's Last Day

Today the mayor of Newton Aycliffe, Mary Dalton and her son Michael Dalton came in to visit Options. We made sandwiches and had a buffet lunch for them. It was also Kathryn's last day with us as she is going to University at York. We were sad to see her go but hope she does really well at University.

Battle of Britain

Today is the anniversary of the Battle of Britain. We looked it up on the internet and found out about the Battle of Britain, the aeroplanes that were used and the bombings that took place.

Options Voices

This morning we went shopping to buy refreshments for the room. Then we wrote up what each of us did at the Options Summer Festival. This afternoon we watched our Options Voices video to see what was important to people. You can watch the video below.

Options Summer Festival and Danceathon

Yesterday was the day of our first Options Summer Festival. We had a sponsored Danceathon running from 8:30am-8:30pm. We also had a coffee morning, a BBQ, wet sponge throwing, stalls, hook a duck, a treasure hunt and many other activities throughout the day. The Festival was a great success and everyone enjoyed themselves. 

Baking

On Wednesday we enjoyed baking lots of tasty cakes and scones for our Summer Festival.
