Kestrels Advancement Day
We arrived at Laura’s house at around 9:00 – apart from Simon, he was still asleep – and started what would become a very very very productive day.
We started off chill. A few advancement tasks here and there and then we made tea and it was like everyone was asleep and now after tea is was like BOOM wakkie wakkie! Then we started cooking. I went from 51% to 80% in the span of one hour. Then we made these lovely cappuccino muffins that Ov couldn’t bake.
In the end it was fun and we really got productive.

Avila’s Community Service
On the 7th of June, Avila ran her discoverer community service, which was collecting and then throwing away rubbish at the park next to zandvlei. It was very cold and rainy throughout the day. There was a race to see which team of two could collect more rubbish, but in the end, one of the bags broke so we had to put the broken bag in the other one. We took several brakes at Avila’s house where we got to have tea, rusks and eat whatever snacks we brought while warming up by the heater after getting soaked. We had terrible luck because it was poring whenever we were working but whenever we took a break the rain would stop. In the end, we managed to collect 2 bags of rubbish and despite it being wet and cold, it was still a fun experience helping the community and the environment.
