This week at Harwes Farms saw a very different type of weather.....

On Monday our one and only tried his hardest to get a fire to stay alight but it was all in vain. Even legendary fire starter (all safe of course) Gemma couldn't keep it going, it was a little bit wet. He did feed the Herbie the sheep his arthritis medication though and collected some lovely eggs from the chicken coop.

It was a little brighter on Wednesday and our numbers had doubled. We got over to Forest School, scavenged some dry branches, chopped some kindling and got a fire going. The boys even managed to have a meaningful conversation with each other where they realised that there was no need to not get on as they had quite a laugh together...

Let's see what next week brings.
