A wonderful Wednesday at Woodmatters!

Reception had the most wonderful of days yesterday on their first ever school trip to Woodmatters! They explored the woodland for autumn treasure, learnt how to use a steel and flint to make their own fires and cooked caramelised apples on the campfire. The afternoon was spent whittling willow to make into their own charcoal which was used for smudging leaf prints. They also learnt how to use a saw safely to make their own elder bead necklaces.
