Forest School – Reception

The sun shone beautifully for us this week at Forest School. We were very surprised to find snow still on the ground when we arrived. It sounded lovely and crunchy under our feet as we stomped all over it.

On our walk across the field to our woodland we spotted a cluster of evergreen trees. We learnt that these trees were called ‘pine trees’ and saw pine cones growing on them.

This week our children were excited to find out that our animal shelters had survived the wind, rain, sleet and snow! Our animals from last week were still in their homes looking cosy, warm and snug.

Lots of excited children, and adults, set off for Forest School this week and experienced a journey of sleet and snow. We were prepared for a cold afternoon!

This half term, 15 children from Reception Class have started Forest School sessions with Mrs Farrington and had their first visit on Wednesday 7th January 2015.
