We've had a very short week in the forest this week, but just as fun nonetheless! Before the long weekend, we had a brilliant cooking activity using the dough we'd previously used for baking the bread sticks; this time we made Blackberry Parcels!
Putney Heath - Every New Friend is a New Adventure
Twickenham - The forest café
A few of our Little Forest Folk-ers also went on a bear hunt to explore the forest which was still so new for some of our starting children, swishing through the long grass and pretending to splash in our river. It was a great way to take a journey around our site as well as retelling a much-loved story.
Wandsworth - Forest School Rules!
Wimbledon - chalk board drawing
Chiswick - Glitter and graduations
Fulham - Sunshine, sprinkles and seeds!
As our holiday camps come to an end, we have been taking a moment to appreciate just what a wonderful group of children we have had joining us over the summer holidays. Many returning faces and some new ones too, all coming together and making the most of their time spent at camp by sharing their ideas, telling stories, and forming some lovely friendships in the process.
Morden - Our Forest Bakery!
Another lovely week of exploring and creating at Morden! The children have been so wonderful as the educators have been helping the newest children arrive in the forest; they have been welcoming and patient, showing the new children all the fun things we have on offer to play with, and sharing our fun with new friends!
Putney Heath - New friends and new adventures
We ended a brilliant week making some wonderful creations using the junk modelling resources. Using cardboard boxes, toilet tubes, lids and other recycled objects, the children worked together to build a rocket. They even added red and yellow tissue paper to the back to create some fierce fire to help the rocket fly.
Twickenham - transition from forest to classroom
As the summer holidays draw to a close, we have had a bittersweet week in the forest. We have been very excited to meet some new friends and introduce them to our wonderful environment. However, we have also bid a fond farewell to many old friends who are now making the transition from forest to classroom.
