T’was great to welcome @ysubcharity out to us. The kids were amazing & got stuck in lighting fires, sawing, planting, hammering, creating, climbing and swinging around. So many laughs and happy faces 😊 @Muddyfaces@FsCuriosity@Lea_Forest_HT @teach_outdoors @ForestSchoolFun
It’s been a busy weekend of sawing - but so worth it to hear the kids squeals as they ran outside, ‘It’s a pirate ship!!’ The water system was popular, as they adjusted the tubes and guttering on the handmade frames to make the water flow @Muddyfaces@StreatleySch@FsCuriosity
🐾 We are collaborating with @florisbooks this month and we are giving away a copy of the beautifully illustrated Gerda Muller book 'Whose Footprints Are These?' For a chance to win like and re-tweet. Closing date - MN 10th Dec. Winners will be DM on 11th Dec
Buttercup Hapazome, pinecone bees, honey cake - just some of our 🐝 themed activities…Did you know that bees have 5 eyes? This was just one of the facts we talked about yesterday alongside the lifecycle of a bee and pollination. @Muddyfaces@Lea_Forest_HT@ForestSchoolFun
The theme of the day was, The Coronation; the kids got stuck in creating our natural Hapazome bunting & our joint commemorative plaque. Those that wanted to, sawed and decorated tree cookies…others went bug hunting, hung out in the hammocks and made mud cakes fit for a King!
Well, the rain did not dampen our spirits today @BrizePrimary Candles, paracord bracelets, rock painting and chicks were a hit…and our campfire hot cross bun bread and butter pudding got the 👍🏼👍🏼@StreatleySch@ElvyCurious @teach_outdoors @Muddyfaces@ForestSchoolFun
We’ve been trying out some natural dyes at #Forestschool. So far we’ve boiled onion skins and beetroot - but are going to be stoking up the fire for spinach, turmeric and red cabbage. Can’t wait to see the results at our Easter clubs @Muddyfaces@forestimaginatn@ForestSchoolFun
We had lots of fun @BrizePrimary this week; using chopsticks to pick up pebbles, painting Chinese numbers, using stencils and retelling ‘The Great Race’ around the campfire. Lots of chatter, new skills learned, knowledge fun shared @Muddyfaces@ElvyCurious@ForestSchoolFun
