Marton Forest School

Building dens and making swings (with varying degrees of success). Lots of new skills, teamwork and resilience in show today and another lovely afternoon at !

More forest fun building dino egg nests and crossing the log yesterday. The children collaborated to make up new rules for hide-and-seek, with some people proving very hard to find indeed! 👀

Group had a great time looking after their eggs, jumping into leaves and being firemen today. We even managed to find and inspect some nice jelly ear fungus!

Yesterday we built nests using woodland materials and tested them to see whether or not they could keep our dragon eggs safe. No dragons were harmed during this activity. Phew! 🐲

We’re back! Amazing afternoon with Group A at for this week. Looking forward to Group B next week. Just be sure to bring your waterproofs!

The search is over! If you've been looking for educational activities to try with your child at home, we've got just the thing for you over at http://www.martonprimary.co.uk/school-life/useful-links/. 🦉😎

Although spending time outdoors is still important, please remember to follow the advice we are being given. Stay safe, everyone! 💚

Another massive thank you to for delivering this pile of woodchip for our . Year 4 had a very busy afternoon spreading it before toasting marshmallows over the fire.

An HUGE thanks to Terry’s Cut Price Carpets for their generous donation, which has given us a membrane layer to suppress grass growth inside our new . Thanks also to Harry and Mr. Apps for helping to lay it.

Some photos from our planting event on Wednesday. Fantastic to see our school community working together in creating something for future generations to enjoy! 💚🌳
