This afternoon, we were all lucky enough to enjoy the first of our 6 week block of Forest School sessions with Richard Patchett with this week’s focus being ‘Bug Hunting and Pond Dipping’!
What a brilliant time we had! The sun was shining as we all headed to the pond at Aldouran Wetlands armed with nets with the very knowledgeable Richard there to tell us what we we had caught.
From Lesser and Greater Water Boatmen to Damselfly Larvae to a Great Diving Beetle larvae and at least 5 newts – the pupils all had a great afternoon pond dipping.
Just look at these happy photos! Thank you Richard – see you next week when we will be working on…ropes!
