Bitterns Forest School

We were lucky enough to experience a forest school session on Friday to celebrate bonfire night. Together with the Coots we helped to build a fire which we sat around safely in a fire circle. We discussed the sights, smells and sounds of the burning fire whilst watching it grow.  For some of us it was the very first fire we have ever seen close up. We all agreed the best part of the session was having the opportunity to toast our own marshmallows in order to make delicious smores. Our next step in our learning is to apply our experiences when writing bonfire and firework poetry.
