Whittling sticks to toast marshmellows

 We’ve had a wonderful afternoon! The infants have really impressed me by the way they’ve demonstrated many of our school values during our session. I loved how they worked together, coaching one another and giving feedback whilst whittling their sticks. Whittling is a tricky skill but the way they listened and reacted to feedback meant that everyone successfully managed to take off the bark from the stick and create a pointy end for the marshmallow to stab onto.

Once we had all whittled a stick, we had a fire and sat around the fire circle and enjoyed hot chocolate and toasted marshmallows together.
