Forest School

We have really enjoyed the sunshine this week.

The area has been busy at lunchtimes with children making bracelets, making animal homes and hunting for insects.  We found an ants nest.  We watched the ants crawling around and disappearing back down the holes to their nest.

Some Year 3 and some Year 4 children have been out with me in the afternoon.  They have been learning how to keep safe during Forest School sessions.  We have to remember to walk around the fire circle and stay within the grass area at all times.  On Wednesday afternoon we were joined by a small bird.  We think it was a Greenfinch.  The children enjoyed watching it fly from branch to branch and one child commented that they had never been so close to a bird.
