During our final session the children enjoyed ligthing a camfire. After a safety discussion children were asked to collect a variety of tinder and kindling for their fire.

We then began to prepare our fire.

Once our fire was lit we started to prepare our marshmallows ready to toast whilst also fuelling our fire to keep it lit!

Nature Friends were invited to create a habitat for the fauna that call our forest school ‘home’. They thought carefully about all of the things that the insects would need and set about creating their habitats.

The Howlers were also thinking about our natural environment in our forest school area and they were invited to follow their interests and identify some of the flora in our area.

Children in both groups were invited to create their own forest school artwork and frame it using natural materials.

Nature friends had a super forest school session. They were invited to imagine that the forest school area was their campsite and they had to work together to create their community.

The ‘Howlers’ really enjoyed continuing there Forest School journey today. They played some team games and were invited to make a ‘new kingdom for the little people that had lost their kingdom in a recent flood’. They created some wonderful structures with superb detail. They enjoyed their ‘explore and discover’ time where they made soup, climbed trees and swung on ropes,
