Y3 enjoyed a trek through Castle Eden forest focusing on similarities and differences between the tropical and UK forest – although at 26 degrees it was nearly as hot as a tropical forest!
Firstly we all went on a walk to look at lots of different trees, plants and woodland animals. We then moved onto a hunt for cards with different continents around the world and matched them up with different rainforests and climate descriptions. We finally moved deeper into the forest where we learnt life skills on survival in the rainforest! We enjoyed building our own dens and learning how to peg and tie ropes and sticks together! We had an amazing day!
