This morning Cassatt Class had a wonderful trip to Little Forest Adventures to further explore our local area and environment. The children started off by meeting Liz who explained what would happen when we got to the camp, and how to keep ourselves safe. Each group then walked through the woods towards the camp and then got the opportunity to explore the many areas within the forest such as the mud kitchen, sand pit, bug hunting station, puppet show, craft and reading tent, swings and ropes. archery, den building and many more.

Each group took a turn to visit the campfire and choose a snack they would like to toast. Liz was there to help us and taught us how to keep safe when cooking on the fire.

We were so proud of the children and how carefully they listened to the instructions, respected the environment and engaged in all the activities, trying new things and fully embracing our morning in the woods. Liz and Gemma from Little Forest Adventures commented on how brilliant they had been, as did the minibus driver!

Once we were back at school the children were very excited to share their ideas about what learning they would like to do linked to our trip, and ideas for how we could change our own outdoor areas using some of the ideas we saw today.

Thanks to the parents who joined us on the trip and for all parents for making sure your children were kitted out for the trip today!
