For our last day at The Well this school year, we headed to Urban Air for an afternoon full of fun! πŸŽ‰ The students jumped, bounced, climbed, and ran out every bit of energy, took a pizza break, and then went right back for more. πŸ˜„ Lots of laughter, big smiles, and great memories made. What a perfect way to celebrate an amazing school year together!

This spring, our students traveled the world through food with Jen Barr, making delicious dishes from Taiwan, Greece, and Japan. For our final cooking showcase, families, Hopewell pastors, and Dr. Barr joined us to sample the students’ creations! The kids did a wonderful job sharing about each dish and how it was prepared. It was a joyful way to celebrate an amazing year at The Well.

One of our favorite devotional activities is visiting the labyrinth at Hopewell UMC, Downingtown, PA. Pastor Vicki showed our younger group how walking this path can help us focus and pay attention to God. And rolling down the hill afterwards is always a highlight!

We're so proud of our older students who cleaned out our garden beds a few weeks ago! It's beautiful to watch how they care for the space and help to make it welcoming and inviting. New native plants were put in to help our space be butterfly and bee-friendly. πŸ¦‹πŸ After the hard work, our students enjoyed Rita's Water Ice!

Last week, we went to Bradford Heights Elementary School to help Mrs. Graham in the garden. She shared a great lesson with us about seeds and how a plant grows. We planted pea seeds, and watered them REALLY well. Then we planted begonia plants in pots to take home.

We loved getting our hands dirty while creating with clay! After the creations were dry, we came back to paint. Many of our students made gifts for Mother's Day. Working with clay reminds us that we are like clay, always being shaped as we grow. May God continue to shape us into people of love, generosity, kindness, forgiveness, and courage.

Last week, our K-3rd graders went to Highland Orchards Farm and Market to get a special tour and lesson from Mrs. Hodge. We were so glad for a break in the rain for our visit and it was a great day to be outside, learn about the life cycle of an apple, and run through the orchard! 🍎🍏

We LOVE dogs at The Well πŸΎπŸ’›

And recently we had the best visit with our new friend Arianne Missimer and her sweet therapy dog, Gracie!

There were so many smiles and so much joy as we watched Gracie show off her tricks. And even more excitement when our students got to pet her and try a few tricks with her too!

Thank you, Arianne and Gracie, for sharing your time (and your tail wags!) with us. We can’t wait to have you back! 🐢✨

Cooking is one of our favorite activities at The Well and we're in our new series of 'Eating Around the World' this winter with Jen Barr from Downingtown/Kennett Nutrition & Weight Management Centers and several DASD high school volunteers! Each month the students will make a dish from a different country. Our first stop was Japan. We made Hara Harchi Bu - a yummy rice, chicken and vegetable treat. The kids LOVE when Jen comes and helps them to create something yummy!
