The sun shone brightly overhead, casting a golden hue across the school field where the children were gathered. It was time for Freya's outdoor class. Miss Cooper had momentarily stepped away to rest in the teachers' room, leaving Mr. Ves Larkinson in charge of supervising the students during this playful session.
Mr. Larkinson stood nearby with a warm smile, his hands loosely folded behind his back as he watched the children sit in a wide circle on the grass. Today's game was Duck, Duck, Goose, and the excitement among the little ones was palpable.
"Alright, everyone, let's begin!" Mr. Larkinson announced cheerfully. "Damien Quinn will be the first 'farmer'. Let's show him how it's done."
Damien, a lively boy with sandy blonde hair, stood up with a grin and began walking around the circle. As instructed, he gently tapped each child's head and said, "Duck... duck... duck…" He made it around the entire circle but forgot to pick a "goose."
