Forest School
An area of the school field was set aside in April 2014 to enable it to be developed into a Forest School site. Willow was planted to act as the boundary of the site. Different areas of the site were added which included a muddy patch for digging and looking for worms and other mini beasts, a camp fire circle for small fires to cook marshmallows over, balancing beams to practice walking along, climbing over and under, also a rope swing which is available on each Forest School session. Two newly created mini beast hotels were added to natural structures to attract more mini beasts and insects to the site.
Finding mini beasts. Within the Forest School sessions the children have found many different mini beasts from different lengths of worms, black ants, woodlice, snails, slugs and even some spiders. We have made some mini beast hotels using some logs that they been collected around the School site, to attract more wildlife into the Forest School site.
