Dear Year 1 Parents,

Year 1 had a wonderful time at Forest School last term. Our focus was on re-establishing our Forest School routines and encouraging the children to be kind and supportive friends. They have been fantastic. The Acorns team has witnessed a great deal of positive sharing, patience and kind words towards one another.

It was such a treat for me to spend time with them again. The children thoroughly enjoyed lots of free exploration. The mud was clearly a huge hit in all its forms — jumping in it, digging in it, creating mud slides and even enjoying the occasional “mud bath”!

Some of the children were very busy climbing trees and using the tyre swing, while others worked hard to improve the den that Big Acorns had previously started. We also enjoyed sharing hot chocolate and a snack together, which was a lovely way to end our sessions.

A huge thank you to Gemma and Adam for her help last term, and to all the parents who were so willing to step in when we needed a temporary helper. We are truly grateful for your continued support.

Kind regards,

Mrs Lefebvre
