During our walks across the bridge, the children excitedly searched for tortoises and herons. We used our observation skills to look carefully around the water and nearby habitats, talking about where animals like to hide and live.

Wimbledon - Ice Play and Foraged Elderflower Cordial
On Tuesday, we enjoyed some exciting ice play. The children used spray bottles, squeeze bottles and little wooden hammers to melt and crack giant ice cubes into smaller pieces. It was fascinating watching the colours mix together and slowly turn into a deep purple. We also began making our very own elderflower cordial!

Winkworth - Patience, Curiosity and Scientific Thinking!
Chiswick - Confidence, Balance and Coordination
Fulham - Ball Play, Climbing and Navigating the Trees
This week our children buzzed with the rhythm of dancing bees, travelling from flower to flower as they explored the wider park. Their curiosity set the pace, and what a wonderful pace it was.
Children tested their abilities in all kinds of physical challenges: running, ball play, climbing, and navigating their way under and around trees. There was a real sense of stepping out of comfort zones and challenging themselves to do a little more.
Morden - ⭐️ Fun and New Activities
Putney Heath - Exciting pirate Adventures, Creative Activities and Lots of Music
Twickenham - International Museum Day Activities
To mark International Museum Day, we turned the forest into a child-led “museum” experience. Our little explorers explored water in many different ways, experimenting with movement and flow using a range of containers and equipment. They tested floating objects they had constructed themselves and carefully watched how they travelled through the water. Water play has continued throughout the week, with the children thoughtfully gathering items to embed in water ready for a freezing experiment next week.
