 Today, Tigers reflected on the emotions and feelings surrounding Good Friday. Their thoughts and discussions were insightful and mature. They then each created a piece of art depicting Good Friday, focusing on the colours reflecting the mood and emotions. 

 On Tuesday, Tigers learnt how to write a recipe for pita bread. We then went onto measure the ingredients and make it.  Later in the day we were able to eat the bread and have some juice recreating the last supper!

 On Monday, Tigers learnt about Palm Sunday. We used our measuring skills to create palm leaves which we then used to act out the story.

We have had such a wonderful afternoon. As often happens and should happen in forest schools, the session went in a completely different direction to what I had planned because of the interests of the children. Elsie and Rose hunted for bugs and made a home for them, thinking about what they would need to make them comfortable.    Lots of children showed great teamwork, building a shelter using a rope, tarpaulin and 'pegs'. They then made a 'campfire' and sorted out tea.    Oscar, Sol and Robert decided to make a natural shelter then added a tarpaulin and ropes to keep the wind off them. Henry built a shed for his chickens. Florence, Henry and Connie worked on re-building a natural shelter, repairing the areas that needed it. It's been a such fun, well done Infants.

 Today we discussed hope in Collective Worship. The children wrote their hopes on their balloons then sent them up in a prayer to God,

We had a lot of fun in maths today, making 2D and 3D shapes using marshmallows and spaghetti.  We then measured our hands and feet in cm, practising careful use of a ruler.
