Forest School

Forest School is part of our curriculum and takes place within our very own woodland/pond area towards the rear of the school field.  It runs on Fridays throughout the year and aims to provide all children within the school with the opportunity to experience outdoor learning within a familiar location.                                         IMAG0002

It will encourage children to take control of their own learning through small achievable tasks.

We have also invited the local pre-schools and nurserys to share in our Forest School activites. The children enjoyed sharing the story Stanley's Stick before using their own sticks to write in the mud, make crowns and even for cooking. They particularly enjoyed making damper bread and toasting marshmallows over the campfire!
