Today Crew Hamill made baskets from strips of papers and then added their own finishing touches to them. They practiced their weaving techniques and they even helped the rest of their crew if they got stuck. Fantastic crew work today!

So again we could not get out into our forest area but that didn’t stop us from doing some team building activities. The children got split into 3 teams and then they sent 1 person from each team to come and have a look at what I had built under my blanket using cubes and blocks. After 10 Seconds they had to go back to their team and describe what it looked like and then try and build what they could remember. They had lots of fun doing this and had some brilliant communication skills with their team. Well done Crew Hamill!

So the weather was really bad in our forest area so we were unable to in there but it didn’t stop us from doing what we normal do in there. We made our very own turtles, using wool, lollipop sticks and felt tip pens.

Crew Hamill was thinking about our little animals and they wanted to make sure they had somewhere dry and warm to go.

Crew Hamill loved making stars and christmas trees using twigs from our forest.

In XP outdoors today the children made their initials using twigs, string and wool. First they looked for twigs and then they got the string to tie all the pieces into place for their initial. After that they then got some wool and made it look pretty.
