We have had a beautifully sunny week in the forest! We have retired our winter hats and replaced them with sun hats and suncream! ☀️
Putney Heath - Elderflower Cordial Again!
It is that time of year again… Elderflower season! We love Elderflower season here at Putney Heath, as it means we get to make our very own Elderflower cordial for everyone to enjoy. This has been the big highlight of our week and the children have all worked super hard to make the best cordial they could!
Twickenham - Maths Skills in the Forest
Wandsworth - Storytelling & Clay modelling
Under the leafy canopy of Paradise, the children got off to an excellent start this week. Gathering around the table, the children had a wonderful time, moulding, pressing and rolling clay with one another. With an eclectic array of possibilities, they primarily made all sorts of foods; sausages, eggs, potatoes and peas. The kitchen was well and truly open and all the little chefs were hard at work. "Ten fat sausages sizzling in a pan, one went pop and the other went bang," they enthusiastically sang with the educators. Bon appétit!

Wimbledon - Adventure Walks & Insect Spotting!
It has been a week of adventure walks, building and insect spotting!
Our Wimbledon Little Forest Folk-ers have had a busy week exploring all areas of our wonderful forest. The buttercups have created a blanket of yellow on the meadow which the children have loved, and it has created the perfect spot to sit and watch the bugs and the bunnies hop around.

Wands, ladybirds and dreamcatchers being but a few of the delightful things that our Little Forest Folk-ers have been making.
