This week saw a brand new group of forest schoolers heading off to the woodland with a few of their older preschool friends. As we arrived, we talked about what we may see and there were lots of ideas! The children thought there may be birds and squirrels with the addition of tigers and Gruffalos. What an imaginative group but the grown ups weren’t sure if they wanted to bump into a tiger or a Gruffalo!

The children spent their day balancing, climbing, bouncing, running, crawling and rolling. We were amazed by the capabilities of the children and even on week one we observed some fast developing skills. At the end off our day, the children walked along the woodland path towards the minibus and to our surprise, there stood two beautiful deer! What a great end to a perfect forest school day!
