Autumnal Equinox

Yesterday was a special day in Forest Schools. We celebrated the change in the season and the children enjoyed performing our ‘leaf storm’ as we shook our parachute and made some wind! We’re really get the hang of Forest Schools now. We reply to the call ‘One, two, three, where are you?’ with  ‘One, two, three, we’re here!’ We know which plants scratch or sting and we’re starting to learn some new skills like building towers with branches and twigs. We saw some great examples yesterday. Sophia discovered a moth. It had beautiful muted colours and could only really be seen because of the flash of orange on its wings. Well spotted! We’re becoming really good nature explorers and next week we’re going to make leaf crowns with all those Autumn leaves.
