Colourful crispy leaves continue to flutter down all around us, and the forest floor has been hidden in a sea of beautiful hues, brimming with potential for unparalleled play! Following the lead of educators, children have been dragging their legs through them, with feet sideways, carving looping train tracks all around the forest which in turn, ploughs the leaves into colossal heaps before us.
Wimbledon - Leaves are all around us
Chiswick - Rest, Recuperation and Remembrance
This week we have experienced an exciting change in our forest routine. Following on from our inset day which saw our educators exploring Chiswick gardens, we have a new base camp area! Our new campsite is not far from our previous area, but it will allow for something extremely important to happen in our forest - recovery!
Fulham - bear hunt
Morden - Crunchy Autumn Leaves!
Putney Heath - Terrific Transport
Twickenham - Yellow and purple poppies!
Wandsworth - Post box
Wimbledon - Fireworks, adventure walks and bird calls
Chiswick - A Festival of Lights
Fulham - Diwali decorations
Since the hour went back this weekend, we have really felt the shift into winter. Luckily, we had our delivery of fleecy waterproofs to keep everyone cosy, and we have had a great giggle as the children redecorated their pale blue and yellow outfits completely brown as they splashed, wriggled, and slid about in the mud.
