Despite the rain, the children in Aspen and Fern class had a fantastic day learning outdoors. They had to hunt for mini Gruffalo's and count how many they had found. Next they had to solve clues to find characters from the Gruffalo story. First they found a squirrel up a tree, then a mouse eating a nut that was good. Using their sense of smell they found the fox in his underground house. Crossing the bridge and talking owl language, they soon found the owl. The children then completed a tree rubbing before hunting for the snake in his log pile house. It wasn't long before they spotted the Gruffalo's child and then the Gruffalo himself.
After lunch they used their teamwork skills to build dens. What a fantastic day, using resources in the outdoor environment to stimulate the children's interests and curiosity.
A big thank you to all the adults who helped make the day run so smoothly.
