The blue group did lots of filling and emptying, pouring, cooking with natural materials and painting as they explored the mud kitchen areas.  

 

FOREST SCHOOL Blue Group 19.09.2017
Today the new children explored the Forest School areas. They were fantastic at putting on their own splash suits. We walked into the Willow Dome and introduced our Forest School Calendar and talked about the days of the week, the weather and the seasons. The children collected lots of leaves and compared their colours, shapes and sizes. They had great fun with fallen autumn fruit and also played with some plastic piping. We looked at the pond and Jooles was fantastic at holding a frog and showed the new children how not to be afraid.
Finally the children gathered around the campfire area and we discussed fire rules and what we have to do to keep ourselves safe when the fire is lit. The children were excellent and thinking up rules and we finished off by having a yummy hot chocolate and some marshmallows.
