Year 3 have had a fantastic day at Forest School today and have been very busy exploring and learning new skills! 🌿
The children have been practising how to tie knots, making beautiful beads to add to bracelets and necklaces, creating bubble wands, and exploring the Forest School area. We especially loved swinging in the new hammock and enjoying delicious homemade pancakes around the fire! 🔥🥞 It has been wonderful to see their creativity, teamwork, and enthusiasm throughout the day!
Well done, Year 3! 🍃✨
