Chiswick - Learning Shapes with Ice Cream Scoops
To keep our learning rich and connected, we continued exploring shapes and patterns. The children created delicious “ice cream” patterns with scoops of raspberry and lemon flavours. They also crafted colourful caterpillars, carefully arranging patterns to challenge their growing maths skills. Our older children heading off to school were especially engaged, showing confidence and pride in their creations.
Wimbledon Village - Picking Pollen and Potato Curry
On Monday, the children explored what would float and what would sink using some items provided by the educators and more that were found around camp. The warm weather also gave our educators quality time to talk about why we need to be careful in the sun and why we need more water breaks built into our day - some of the children can even now be heard calling ‘water break’ before the adults!
Chiswick - A Creative Week in the Forest!
We’ve been diving into literacy with lots of enthusiasm. The children have been practicing letter formation through name writing, taking pride in recognising and writing the letters that make up their names. Our older children also engaged in phonics play, linking initial letter sounds with familiar words. It’s been a great way to develop early reading and writing confidence in a playful and meaningful way.
Wimbledon Village - Happy Bugs & Potato Harvesting
We kept the tweezers, scissors and paper punches from last week and progressed to using palm drills and secateurs under the guidance of educators. There were also lots of opportunities to use big gestures and work on balance and hand-eye coordination on innovative slackline, rope and swing configurations.

Fulham -Soaking up the Sunshine!
On Tuesday, Earth day itself, they did a special ocean clean-up activity. We had shells and sea creatures in our blue tray. 🐟🐠🐡 However, could you see these? No, because the tray was so polluted! There was murky water, plastic and even food waste. However, soon the water was clear enough thanks to our fabulous little explorers!
Morden - Biggest Leaves Ever!
One of the activities that our little explorers took part in was creating an Earth Day poster - they used all their small handprints to decorate the Earth. This opened up so many questions about recycling and how we can look after our beloved animals too. ✨ They finished off the poster with “ We can change our Earth with our own two hands.” ✨
