Outdoor fire experience with Scottys Hero’s
The children in Crew Marsh had a brilliant session with Scottys Hero’s, they learnt how to start a fire by using a flint and steel to create sparks, then added cotton wool to start their mini fires. What an exciting experience. We will be toasting marshmallows in no time!

Crew MI had a lovely time in out forest school . First we started with a bit of crew building which was loop de loop. The aim of the task was to pass the hoop round the circle without letting go of the persons hand next to you but to also not use your own hands to step through the hoop. After this some of the children explored the forest area by making dens, climbing tree or just having a walk round and the other made a twig letter. This was making the first letter of their name out of sticks and wool.

Cleaning up our forest area
Crew Hamill have done a fantastic job in helping me clean up are forest area. They worked well has a crew and helped each other. They even made their own swing.
Flint and Steel
In our last Scotties session, the children had the opportunity to learn how to use a flint and steel in order to start a fire in the case of needing to survive. The children shower great perseverance in getting the flint and steel to create a spark.
