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.
As part of the RSPB big bird watch the children made some bird seed cakes to attrach more birds into the Forest School site.They enjoyed making the cakes using lard and bird seed mixed together and then put into yogurt pots. Finding different places around the site in which to hang them up in. They were really please to see some Jawdaws on the main School field.
