This half term we have been looking at artists who create ‘abstract’ paintings – the children were so excited to become and ‘abstract artist’ themselves and portray similar themes, colours and shapes to Kandinsky – they found it fascinating that when you listen to music you can paint what you hear 🙂

After the torrential weather and the session being rescheduled, Class 2 have finally had the opportunity to visit forest schools and take part in all of the wonderful things our local woodland has to offer.

We made our very own stick men and women, toasted marshmallows on the fire and did lots of risk assessing when independently climbing trees! What a pleasure it was to have you class 2 – we hope to see you again soon 🙂

Today we took class 3 to our forest schools site and spent time spreading the forest schools fun across the school! We concentrated on making friendship frames and friendship wands from natural resources found in the woodland as well as simple cooking skills on the fire.

The weather certainly did not dampen our spirits as all of the children were smiling from ear to ear……. even if they were the muddiest smiles in the universe 🙂

Class 1 and 2 have had so much fund visiting the wonderful Hamsterley Forest today!

Class 1 took part in the Tales and Trails workshop led by Rio from Oases and had lots of opportunities to put our Forest Schools skills into play!

Class 2 had lots of fun using a compass and a map to navigate their way around the forest. We didn’t get lost either!

It is great to see all of the children having so much fun in the great outdoors! 🙂
