Newport Pagnell
Brownies go for
Gold
Newport Pagnell Brownies had an Olympic/Paralympics themed activity day on 30th August. They had a morning at Willen Lake where they had Bell Boating Races. It was a wonderful opportunity to be on the water and get the experience of paddling. Tired but happy from their efforts they returned to St Lukeʼs Church for their lunch and then they did wordsearches with Olympic and Paralympics themes, they coloured the logos for both events, they each made an Olympic torch, and made a collage of the Olympic rings. They had to design a medal ceremony and were asked if they were to have such a ceremony who would they have to present the medals.
The first three answers were: 1. The Prime Minister; 2. The Queen; 3. A Member of Parliament.
Following the discussions as to the format of a medal ceremony the girls practised how it
would take place, with Brown Owl from 3rd NP Brownies standing in as the "important person". Unbeknown to the girls Mr Mark Lancaster the MP for Milton Keynes North had been invited to the activity day. He duly arrived at 3.00pm with his aid Richard. The girls had their special medal ceremony and they carried their torches that they had made.
One Brownie passed a comment that she didn't expect to get a real medal and when it came to the photos they were all happy to pose holding it like true Olympians / Paralympians.
For the remainder of the afternoon the girls were busy with games and craft activities, at 5.00pm they sat down to roast chicken, roast potatoes, carrots and peas, followed by jelly and ice cream. At 6.00pm they went home having earned Water Safety, Water Sports, On your Marks and Going for Gold badges. A good day was had by all.
