Joe

Our party was good. It was my best party ever. David and Ali
My best bit was the scavenger hunt; we had to found out how old a tree was so we counted the rings. We also got points for finding bugs and flowers and strange things. I had a centipede on my hand. So did my cousin, Eden. My team won the medals because we got so many points!
We had a Spongebob Squarepants cake, my mum forgot the candles. It was a really fun time.

Isaac

Today it was my birthday party! First we played a game, then we got sorted out into two teams. My team was the Red Team, with Callum, Lucas, Aaron, Tom and Alfie. The best bits were when we found the sweets because I liked the sherbet. We found a very strange leaf. Aaron F was the first to found the treasure, both times! It was my best birthday party ever!

Tonight Joe and Isaac were finally invested as Beavers, after going for 7 months.

Today we went to the Tolpuddle Martyr festival in Tolpuddle. We saw Chumbawumba, some of The Men They Couldn’t Hang and Billy Bragg.

We liked the stalls that were selling crystals, chess sets and wooden toys for us, books for Dad, clothes for Mum and ice cream for us all!

Chumbawumba are all folk now, and sounded very good. Billy Bragg was excellent at the end singing with a group of pupils from St. Mary’s school, Puddletown.

First of all, we got off the coach and then saw cows, calves, pigs, piglets, sheep and lambs. Next we saw two horses and a pony. I liked stroking the calves.

A bit later we went to the old church. There was a tomb in there. Next we went to see where they make horseshoes. It is called the blacksmiths.

Isaac came second in a chess tournament last weekend. He played well during his four games, and enjoyed the day. Isaac even had to play Joe, but I won’t say who won to keep the peace.

Luckily for me, I could sit and work during the tournament, but it was a very long day. Well done Isaac.
