On Saturday we hosted a number of our Year 2 families at our Forest School site. With all the rain we have had the site is very muddy but everyone came equipped and had a great time.

Our children enjoyed showing their parents around the site and took them to their favourite activity, for some it was the very muddy digging spot! Everyone had the chance to take part in string art using hammers, nails and wool. They were also able to make Easter patterns on wooden cookies cut in the shape of eggs. The children drilled holes in to the cookies so that they could thread raffia through the hole to make a hanging decoration.

Finally everyone came together to whittle a toasting stick for toast and jam or a hot cross bun. They were enjoyed with a cup of warming hot chocolate.
