Tonight we made a return visit to Hurst Community Centre, this time to clear leaves from the outdoor area used by the nursery school.
It was a proper workout raking the soggy leaves into piles, scooping them into bags, and moving the bags aside for disposal.
Thirty five bags in fact!
It was a lovely evening to be outdoors and we worked hard to finish the job in just an hour. Now it's ready for the nursery children to enjoy tomorrow.
After posing for a group photo we headed off.
It was to fab to have Greg with us, welcome to GoodGym and congrats on your first good deed 👏.
This task was part of GoodGym's collaboration with WWF's Workout For Nature initiative, encouraging us all to get out in nature while giving it a helping hand.

Tonight we got busy at Hurst Community Centre washing the outdoor play equipment used by Bexley Bears Nursery.
Things were pretty sandy from the sandpit, so our starting point was to brush everything down. 🧹
Then it was on with the rubber gloves and filling buckets with soapy water to give the toys a good scrub. 🪣 🫧 🧽
Tempted to sing while we cleaned, we had to be mindful of the ballet class taking place in the hall with open windows next to where we we're working. So there was plenty of quieter chatting instead.
Finally we sloshed away the suds with fresh water and the job was done in just under an hour. All ready for the children to play on tomorrow.
Next week we're indoors tidying the music room at Holy Trinity Lamorbey School. Variety is the spice of life with GoodGym. Come and join us!
