What a chilly start to the week it was! And how excited we all were to have ACTUAL snow in the forest! The children were brilliant in keeping up their spirits on the colder days and we couldn’t have been prouder of them.

We took clay, paints, crayons, card, twine, scissors and tape into the forest and the children used these resources to make and create their own wonderful pieces of art. With the clay, the children experimented with different ways of manipulating and moulding.

This has been such an exciting week in the forest with the move to our new base camp. For those who helped move some of our logs last week, the transition was seamless; for others who arrived on Monday morning to this new, alien base camp it was a bit more of a shock.
