Today the clans were continuing to develop their shelters and dens. You could take a walk up to school in the evening and see what you think.
We are hoping that it is not windy tonight or tomorrow!!
We were also foraging for brambles with Mrs Queen and hope to make jam with them. Some clans have used berries to paint their clan flag.
Today some pupils created journey strings during a walk. On the walk you attach different natural finds to your string. Some have a scent, some have medicinal qualities (Dock Leaf) some have colour and could be used as a dye. Some finds can be eaten.
The string is like a map of the journey you took. You can pass it to a clan member and they can try to retrace your steps using your finds as clues.
Mrs Nyondo made two excellent journey strings – they are now hanging in a clan shelter.
Mrs Madden and Nathan are collecting nettles – Mrs Madden is going to show us how to make nettle string. Mrs Madden is also showing pupils how to whittle.
You guys got a very sunny day for your trip to the 12 Apostles – lucky!!
Hope this finds you safe and well.
Miss Dale
Hi, its Caspian!
Thank you for this Miss Dale. We keep intending to collect berries when we go for our woodland walks but none ever make it home! Mum really wants to make some hedgerow jelly so we will try to be strong willed next time!
Hello Miss Dale, we waved at some of you today while we were on our nature walk.
