Nature painting involved the children finding different plants, pinecones and leaves from around the forest and then dipping them into paint to create a pattern. It was lovely to see all of the different patterns, colours and pictures that were created.

This week at Wimbledon we have been really testing our physical abilities. The children have been doing some climbing in our “imagination tree”, clambering through the “squeezy tree” and balancing on the obstacle courses. It has been great to watch their perseverance and determination as they start the week a bit wobbly, and then show such proudness when they can do it independently by the end of the week

This week at Wimbledon we have enjoyed signs of spring popping up all around us and the children have spent so much time looking for bugs and insects in the forest. They have been really interested in worms and ant eggs, using their own handmade binoculars to see what else they could find. We used recycled toilet roll tubes and tape to make our binoculars, and they were then used to spot birds, insects and even some aeroplanes!
