Little Acorns and Year 1 children were recently joined in the forest by someone special…Stickman! After being inspired by the story, the children decided to make their own version of Stickman using resources from the forest. Some of the children even took their Stickman home. As well as this, the children continued to have fun exploring the scramble net, adding to their dens from the previous week and creating mud sculptures (hedgehogs, dinosaurs, cows, pigs and goats).There was also lots of concentration, persevering and proud peacock moments with the fire lighting session, while lots of children perfected their sparks!

Little Acorns and Year 1 children have been continuing their forest school learning and  the children’s focus shifted from mud to den building and fire lighting. The children discovered some newly created dens in the forest and took it upon themselves to enhance and develop them as well as create their own or turn them into their very own spaceship! Also, with a keen interest in lighting the fire, a small group of children were intrigued by John’s demonstration of how to start a fire without matches, and two had quite the knack and were able to light a piece of cotton wool on fire. Forest school was finished off with a special treat of toasting marshmallows and using the talking stick to share their best bits. Another amazing week and still more to come.
