Forest School

Today we enjoyed our first Forest School session. We had a reminder of the fire safety rules from the story Fiery Fox before lighting our fire. Each child helped to cut the kindling by banging the knife with a mallet. After this we watched Miss make dragon sneezes with the fire steel to light the cotton wool.

Whilst the fire was burning, some of us went on a scavenger hunt around the garden to find objects such as stones, conkers and logs. Some children preferred to have a chat around the fire with their friends.

When the fire was ready, we prepared a tasty treat, chocolate bananas! We sliced them and placed chocolate buttons inside before wrapping them up in foil. After they had heated up, we enjoyed eating them together.
