We started off by discussing the good things about the area and things that could be improved. The children liked that there were benches to sit on and some great trees that they could climb. We spotted a heron in the water and even saw a man trying to catch some fish!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">The children felt that there could be more bins in the area for people to put their rubbish in and that there could be some tables for people to stop and enjoy a picnic as it is such a beautiful place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">We had great fun exploring the area! We found lots of different types of leaves, some wild mushrooms and even some slugs. We made some casts of leaves and other natural objects that we found and worked together in small groups to make boats from natural objects which we set sail on the river.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">It was a fantastic day!<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-90 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon
