The aim of Forest School at Fagley Primary is to build on the children’s innate motivation and positive attitude to learning; to engage with them with the outdoors and to foster a love, respect, understanding and responsibility for our environment.
The children will be offered opportunities, through practical activities, to take beneficial risks whilst building on their decision making, creative thinking and problem solving skills.

Hello my old dearie
Our Year 3 group have been reading the book 'The Lost Happy Endings' at Forest School. The book tells the story of Jub, whose job it is to release all the happy endings for children's bedtime stories each night. Taking inspiration from the book, the children chose to use clay and other natural materials to create the face of the grotesque and evil witch. They aimed to outdo each other in the grossness stakes by adding gooseberry and redcurrant eyes and warts; straw hair and bark chipping teeth. I certainly wouldn't want to come across any of these evil witches on a dark and foggy night!
