Our week in the forest

The melting ice revealed magnificent mud this week and rolling competitions were orchestrated by older children who showed younger ones the best spots with enough slope and space to have the best fun. A mark of success here is the amount of mud our outerwear gets covered in, and there were certainly top marks all round!

So as another week closes in the Fulham forest it’s been an eventful and busy week. We started the week really focusing on number work and spent some time in the creative area practising writing our numbers. The older children even began to use the wooden numbers, creating little sums and then attempting to work them out.

This week in the forest has given the children brilliant opportunities to push themselves and get into their strong flow of creativity and learning! Our frosty environment creates new interesting things to look at each morning, like ice which freezes to look like interesting crystals, or perfect leaf prints from the frost! The children love to see how their environment changes and develops in all different weather conditions.
