Forest school starts on Friday 17th April and will run on alternate Friday mornings starting with 4J in weeks 1, 3 and 5.
4M will be in weeks 2, 4 and 6.
To link with our science topic of food and digestion there will be some activities that involve foraged food, creating models of wild animals and learning about food chains .
Please see below for further information about foraging. The children will be taught about the benefits of eating fresh and local food, to include some wild plants such as nettles, gorse, dandelion and wild garlic. They will be offered the chance to taste nettle and mint tea in the first session but this is totally optional. If you do not wish your child to be offered the tea, please write this in their contact book before Friday 17th for 4J and Friday 24th for 4M.
