On Monday we split into two groups at Kew and headed off in two different directions. One group wanted to do some fishing, so they headed to the lake behind Kew House and hunted for the perfect sticks to turn into fishing rods.

The weather has definitely taken a turn towards chilly this week. Wrapped up with a lot more layers and wearing our new fleece lined waterproofs we have talked a lot about keeping warm and putting our hats and gloves on when we get cold.

It was a glorious day to be back at Kew again with the sun shining and keeping us warm. Half of the children went on a leaf hunt, filling their hoods with all the different types of leaves they could find.

Holiday campers have filled the forest this week bringing new faces, excitement and adventurous spirit. The forest has been full of challenges with a rope bridge, slacklines, logs to balance along and up and a variety of swings to enjoy.
