Forest School is given a great Reception

The two Reception classes experienced their first visit to Forest School during the past fortnight.The children had a fantastic time and developed lots of woodland skills, including learning correct and safe tree-climbing techniques, collecting firewood and creating “magic potions” and “chocolate mud pudding. The children built a fairy village and used leaves to make masks or crowns.

Inspired by their visits, the Reception children have been busy creating a beautiful autumnal Woodland Dell display on the wall outside their classrooms.

Here is what a few of the children said about their Forest School adventures:

"It was really good. I liked mixing the magic potion" -  Charlie

"Making the bonfire was my favourite bit" - Max

"I liked making the fairy house out of sticks" - Sophia and Bronte

"I liked climbing trees" - Phoebe and Hallie
