Your kit should consist of a house coloured t-shirt, black shorts or joggers and pumps or trainers. You can also wear a black hoodie or sweater to keep you warm outdoors.
Key Forest School Information
Your Forest School day is a Tuesday.
These sessions are lead by Mrs Wildman who is a trained forest school practitioner. Make sure you bring layers of clothing to keep warm in the outdoors. You will need wellies and a coat.
Please make sure names are in clothing so we can identify who it belongs to.
Homework Expectations
