In Forest School, Ye

In Forest School, Year 2 have been busy working together to create a cosy new home for some very special little visitors!

Using wooden pallets, the children built a safe shelter and filled it with soft bedding made from grass and leaves. They carefully camouflaged their hotel to help keep it hidden from predators, and even added a little pathway and some decorative touches. 🌱🍃
