A Windy Visit to Avebury

-
We had a great day at Avebury on Thursday, it was a bit wet to start with and rather windy at times but we learnt a lot about Avebury and its history, also what life might have been like for Stone Age people. We learnt things like, it took 100 years to dig the ditch around the circle, using pick axes and spades made from bones and antlers.

Forest School

We were very excited to be the first class to take part in Forest School. We met Mrs Lander on Tuesday afternoon and played some welcome games in our new meeting place in the school garden (by the swimming pool). We discussed toasting marshmallows on a fire pit, if we get one! Mrs Lander also shared with us a mushroom she had found that morning, we passed it round and discussed Forest Schools safety. We then went on a walk around the school grounds, we were looking for interesting natural things to add to out journey stick. Choosing leaves helped us to create clans, we then played games and created a clan sign in our small groups and made mini Stone Age villages from natural resources. It was a lovely relaxed afternoon, that was filled with fun and learning. Please can Forest School clothes be back in school on Tuesday, we will be out in most weather so waterproof clothing would be great.
