Another Great Tuesday Night at RISE 💚💛🩷

As always, we started the night off with our welcome circle. We focused on our Sign of the Week, which was Cookie and Baking. 🍪

We then got busy in the kitchen making some delicious chocolate chip cookies. We loved preparing all the ingredients and getting involved with the baking. However, we loved eating them even more with all our friends! 🍪😋

After our baking, we had some time to relax with a yoga session, focusing on relaxation and stretching. Everyone really engaged with the yoga and worked so hard completing the stretches, some of which were a little tricky! 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️

Ross and Demi also had a Jenga competition! It was a very close call, with both of them being very competitive! 😂

We finished off the night with some group games. We played some relay races, then had a little break to enjoy our delicious cookies. 🍪

We finished the night with our famous game of “Duck, Duck, Goose”! 🦆

See you all again next week! 💚💛🩷
