New equipment!

We are lucky enough to now be the proud owners of a brand new bell tent! The children have already had the chance to explore, read stories and have incorporated it into their role play narratives.

Diggers location: New Forest

New Forest is our highest site here at Diggers and the views are just stunning! There are several view points to take in and the children often look into the distance; 'I can see for miles' and 'look there is a squiggly line from a farmers tractor'.

New Forest is a rural site boasting an abundance of large branches for den making, tree stumps to explore under, an extensive range of snails shells and the walk is an incline of twists and turns with plenty to see on the way.

Today the children were wanting to create fairy doors, fairy phones; to call them on and see what they have been doing and where they are and of course the hammock was available for resting and cloud spotting! A gorgeous morning out

One of our weeks the children were focused on the letter S and therefore the sound ssss. When asking our children what do we know begins with S, one of the children said 'Science'.

Say no more; the children were experimenting with melting ice cubes and trying different methods to see what was more effective. The children made their predictions along the way.

With the introduction of natural colour in the flowers from our environments, we undertook a colour based experiment. The children were fascinated in watching the colours track up and across the paper.

The children have recently been on a scavenger hunt across our forest school environments and what fun they had.

Each child had a board with sticky tape on and a coloured square and the idea was to roam the environment, looking for natural items of that colour. The rest was up to each individual and don't they all look fantastic.

Our children always notice changes in the environment; from flowers appearing, new tree's and ever changing colour of the grass! It was nice to hear how much fun the children had looking high and low for their items and there were proud smiles all around, well done.
