The Wee Wood

24th Nov 2015

The children have been exploring the wood through our weekly 'forest school' sessions.  They have had the opportunity to explore the environment and the changing seasons.  We have also had the opportunity to work with Brian Poots from the Northern Ireland Forest Schools Association to learn some skills to both enjoy the outdoors and to also keep us safe in the 'wee wood'.
