I'm so glad the music did you good - and the concert sounds fantastic!
As for Rainbows... it must be really hard to plan for places etc. Schools don't really manage it well and they have data to extrapolate from and make intelligent (?) guesstimates about possible intakes. Jamie's Beavers have been merged with Cubs because of changes to the housing/population in the area. He's happy, but it isn't ideal in many ways. It's a case of so few children, how can we justify use of the hall, leaders, etc.
It's always interesting talking to leaders/parents from other areas because our nightmare is generally FAR too many children and not enough leaders/space but I know lots of other places really struggle to find enough children to have a whole unit... nothing's ever simple is it!
