Ready Steady Cook was our challenge this evening at explorers.
The 3 teams set about choosing various items from a selection of foods available to them to make a main meal, present and clear up.
After cooking they tasted each of the dishes and decided they all made great chefs as they had no recipes to follow
Well done to all the explorers this evening for team work & cooking skills

The explorers returned this week. After discussing the new badges and ideas for the programme we made a list of all the games they like to play, putting some into practice for those who were less familiar with them.
