International Picnic Day


The Durham weather didn't quite play into our hands as much as we could have hoped for to celebrate this glorious day, however this did not stop us enjoying the grass outside the Early Learning Centre lecture building. People brought a variety of items to lunch on which reflected the multi-national diversity of the assembled throng; there were folk from as far afield as Switzerland and Italy!

After enjoying our lunch we all got stuck into an improvised game of "volleyball" with a giant tennis ball. All was going well until Emma Waterhouse decided some rules needed to be made so people were "out" if they failed to keep the ball airborne. This unncecessary addition to the game came back to bite her however as she was the first player to be sent packing from the game arena.

Thanks to all those who braved the chilly breeze for an enjoyable lunch break.
