Tracker2 Christmas Event
December 2008 saw the Tracker2 particpants attending an arranged Christmas treat from Space2 to an all you can eat chinese buffet.
The young people spent 2 hours with tutors past and present enjoying an evening of food, presents and laughter, as well as discussing and planning the groups next big project for February Half Term holiday.
Part of the evening found the young people trying food like mussels and tiger prawns for the very first time!!! Encouraged by the tutors and fellow Tracker participants some of the young people held their noses and shut their eyes whilst they sampled these delights to see if they actually liked them?! The verdicts......well at least they tried something new!
