The first day of Forest Week

The children have enjoyed their first day of Forest Week and had the chance to take part in a range of different activities. As the weather has been so cold, please make sure that your child wears a warm jumper as well as a coat and thick socks (or double pairs). Most importantly please don't forget their gloves, scarves and hats. All clothing should be clearly named.Many thanks!
