Knots Galore!


We began today with a few games of hide and seek – Finlay, Jason and Alfie were particularly good at hiding! The theme for this week was knots! We were challenged to see how many sticks we could bundle up to carry, securing them with any of the knots we have learnt in class or by making up our own. Q. How many sticks can you carry? A. Lots – over 100 in come cases. Lots of counting, estimating and problem solving here!

Others explored knotting and tying to attach leaves and twigs to trees to form hanging sculptures.

We finished off the afternoon with some warming hot chocolate – mmmmm!

Many thanks to the adults who came with us – we’ve all been grateful to the weather and enjoyed our time in the outdoors.
