DOJO CHALLENGES
Our Healthy Snacks and homemade cookies challenge left me feeling very hungry as I saw all the wonderful photos of delicious treats, yummy snacks and fabulous drinks that everyone enjoyed! It was a close race between all Houses for the challenge champions but our Sapi Sunbears just pipped everyone to the winning spot!
Well done everyone who took part in any challenge last week. I can’t wait to see what KIS do with the challenges this week!
