If you go down to the woods today,

You're in for a great surprise!!

Yes, that's right, Forest Schools has started for Castlethorpe First School children! Each week they will be attending a Forest School session, led by VSF Forest Lead Lisa Humphries. Ofsted has described her sessions as 'magical!' Having attended the first session, I can vouch that it really was a very magical experience, which even brought a glorious sun-baked day! All the children have been given brand new waterproof raincoats and trousers by our wonderful Castlethorpe FOCs ! These will allow them to really immerse themselves in the sessions. During these sessions, the children will learn about bushcraft, different trees and plants, how to keep safe, den making, forest school art, and lots, lots more!
