Another fantastic HAF week at our outdoor space 🔥

We had a lovely group of young people who bonded and made friendships over the 4 days. 🔥

We have made and cooked on fires, learned about water purification and survival skills such as den building 🔥

Our young people were so excited when pond dipping to discover newts and frogs 🐸

We used natural items for arts and crafts and planted little plants to take home. 🔥

We had a fantastic day on Walsalls Wild Roots HAF activity practicing our bush craft den building survival skills🔥

We built shelters in Walsall woodland areas. Which involved team building skills. Then back to our out door space for lunch. 🔥

First day of Wild Roots HAF at our out door space using bushcraft skills 🎪

The young people all had a go of lighting the fire using flints 🔥

Then they sharpened their foraged sticks to toast giant marshmallows 😋

We cooked hot dogs with beans and then made bread using flour and water, mixing it together to cook on the fire. 🔥

We even managed arts and crafts using natural products.
We were so lucky with the warm weather which made it an amazing day.

We had a fantastic HAF week with The Animal Man from Animal in Hands. Check out all the good work they do with rescuing and homing various animals.

Cosmic Faerie Face Painting, Bubbles & Balloons provided an amazing interactive show with glow in the dark smoke filled bubbles and face painting.

Easter bunny also visited with eggs for all.

We had easter arts and crafts, and games.

Next week we have a four day holiday club with bush craft activities at our outdoor space.
