We decided that we would conserve our wild place by planting new trees to make it more diverse. We worked together to plant different varieties of trees, bushes and plants in our woodlands. We planted wild cherry, elder, hawthawn, blackthorn, dog rose, crab apple, field maple and oak. We chose these plants because they give food for animals with fruits, nuts and flowers and give them places to hide. It was hard digging but worth it these trees will be here when we are grown up. We felt happy when we were doing it because we were helping nature and it was fun!

The Muddy Mud Kitchen
Mr Dwane was very kind and generous to make us a nice mud kitchen to play in which we called ‘The Bananas Made from Bananas’. We play like it’s a real kitchen and we make loads of food for our friends and teachers. Imogen likes the little shelves that have tubs in them and she uses bark as pretend steak, mud for gravy and little sticks as chips. We made a fruit salad out of leaves. We like playing in it because it’s really fun and we are practicing for when we are older. Don’t really eat the stuff we make or you’ll be sick.
Stick Skeletons
In our woodlands we made stick skeletons out of different materials that you can find in the woodlands. First we danced to the Awesome Sauce video ‘bones’. We remembered all the bones and felt them on our own bodies to help us. We put labels on the bones afterwards to show what we knew about the different bones!
