It's all about fire 🔥 today on a rainy day in one of our schools. The year 6's are working on the fire (and tool use) section in their Wild Passports.
If you want to find out more about the wild passport programme, give us a call or have a look at the WILD Passport website (Google it).
We can provide forest school, wild passport learning and even wild passport training in Warrington, Cheshire and Lancashire.
