The gang at GoodGym went back to school, to finish off this task, Of painting classrooms, we had started last week, to get a second coat on was the ask.

Eloise had sorted all of the gear, with her old colleague Caretaker Matt, He’d provided buckets and brushes and rollers and paint, plus floor liner if we spilt any of that.

Arba and Jess got on with the job, tidying up the bits down low, Then Lucy and Ben joined in a touch late, as they were running and Lucy was slow.

So coat number two of dulux best white went up and around classroom walls, Rolling and brushing with Michelle cutting in, next up we moved on to the halls.

Eloise was on a roll with her painting roller, up and down with real flair, Matt was on high bits which was kind of ironic, as to reach he had to stand on a chair!

Three rooms done, three fresh new coats on the classroom walls were complete, High bits, low bits and in between, and we had actually managed to be kind of neat.

Caretaker Matt was happy enough with the work that we had done, group photo, a quick tidy and then we were off to enjoy the evening sun.
