29-09-2016 Bake sale sportsday (28-09-2016)

Yesterday we had the bake sale on sports day with our Dutch group. We wanted to have a bake sake for some longer time but figured that a day like sports day was the best opportunity. We sold quite a lot and the money that we earned must first be divided, because there were some other projects who participated as well. We really had to work together as a group and communicate well to make sure everything was going well. I also practised my German skills. Since German is my third language, and I don't practice German classes any more, it can be challenging to speak in German. Some of the parents and children spoke German to me and I tried my best to speak back in German.

27-09-2016 Cake for bakesale

Today I baked a cake for the bake sale we will have tomorrow on sports day. We want to raise some money for our Thailand Project that we run the Dutch group. All of us are making something we can sell, so we can raise enough money. I made an orange- almond cake.
Baking a cake is not always easy, and so today I needed a lot of patience. Baking learns you how to stay calm and patience. This was a recipe that I have never made before and so learned how to bake a new recipe. Even though it is sometimes hard to bake a cake, I still enjoy it.

07-09-2016 single event, creativity (summer holidays)

I went to France this summer holiday and one of the things I did was visiting a castle. The castle was located in the mountains in the south of France. When we visited the castle, there was an art exhibition that lasted for about a week. The artist was Pascal Burq, and his art were paintings. His art was a mixture of abstract and modern art.
