This block of forest school sessions has yet again come to an end and to finish our time at forest school we cooked on our open fire. The children are complete professionals now when it comes to fire week and know how to start a fire, keep themselves safe and put out a fire. They are also the best chefs and prepare the tastiest pizzas ever! With a choice of toppings, the children got to work. Firstly, they spread out the tomato base before adding cheese followed by an array of yummy toppings. We had ham, mushrooms or sweetcorn to make our pizzas extra special. We all enjoyed the pizza that much, we had to cook another full round.

After our pizza it was time for pudding. Again, it was one of our favourites – rice pudding. This time we added some blueberries and they were delicious! Just as we began to eat our pudding, the rain came down. We raced to the big shed where we could eat our rice pudding, staying warm and dry. Sadly, the grownups were not so lucky and had to tidy all the food away and wash the dishes. Luckily, the children stayed inside and had a lovely story about a slug. As soon as the dishes were clean, the sun came out and we could water the polytunnel. The plants really did need a big drink!
