The weather cheered up just in time for Goodgym Wandsworth to assemble! Brilliant to see so many friendly faces. We checked in on Eurovision plans and tested our knowledge of the most successful nations (Ireland and Sweden joint top in terms of previous wins for those who missed it).

We were off to help at a local nursery today with some fantastic jobs lined up. An empty sandpit awaited which was swiftly filled at record speed with fifty fresh bags ready for the kids to enjoy tomorrow. Elsewhere there was some energetic hosing and scrubbing from Jordan and Ali to ensure the cover looked as fresh as the pit itself. The rest of the team got stuck into freshening up some planters with cardboard bases, twigs and then compost. Bags galore and all ready for the children to do some planting.

The team were so quick that they even fitted in a quick spot of weeding out the front to finish the session. It was back to Clapham common for some exercises spelling out Balham (spot a very happy Felix doing his high knees!) and making the most of the glorious light evenings. We even spotted a pony being walked. When in Clapham! Well done all and hope to see you soon.

Balham Nursery School - Prepare for Forest School
The nursery needs an area in its back garden cleared of weeds so we can set up forest school activities.

This nursery school is a state nursery school for under 5s with a large garden to the rear. The top part of the garden is overgrown. The area needs to be cleared so we can then use it to do 'forest school' activities outside with the children. Many of the children don't have the opportunity to do such activities in their homes. We need lots of physical help and it would be great to have this done so the back of the garden can be used this summer. It needs to happen at a week-end when the children are not using the school.
