Karen Macelvie from RSPB came in again as part of the ‘Nature Friendly Schools’ project. She showed us a video about a school in Berlin where they had a ton of awesome equipment, like a splash pool or a huge trail. They said that it was better for kids and their behaviour if at break they were allowed to adventure out of adults supervision.
Inspired by this, we came up with a lot of good ideas. She showed us some pictures of recent projects that she had done. I really liked one of the ideas, which was a bamboo water wall. We narrowed all our ideas down to ones that we all wanted to do. On the 6th of May, Karen will come back in again for action day, where adults and children can bring in materials and make all the things we had planned.
