Our new Forest Schools site

Over the past few days the children have been busy helping to establish our First Schools site.

 

We now have a lovely, safe area, separated from the rest of the site by a 45 metre long living willow fence. Behind the fence we have:

 

- several dens for the children to use and adapt;

- posts which children can sling hammocks between;

- a fire pit;

- our willow dome;

- a large area to pitch our tipee;

- a leader's chair and hand carved wooden benches.

 

The area will be finished in April when we'll get the logs and tree stumps to surround the fire pit, along with a wooden sign which the children will be making. 

 

The staff and children have enjoyed seeing the area take shape - we can't wait for our children to learn and explore! This means that our children can continue to undertake Forest Schools off site and now on site.
