Forest School

Posted: Jan 20, 2023 by: Year 6 (Year 6) on: Year 6 Class Blog

Year 6 have been very busy in their Forest School session this week! We have been continuing our Wild Challenge set by RSPB and we have now completed 4 out of the 6 activities we need to complete in order to achieve a bronze award. 

During this week's Forest School session, the children worked as wildlife detectors and habitat explorers to identify the range of wildlife and habitats that we have living in our school grounds. We found lots of evidence of different wildlife that live around our school - we also found different habitats located around the school field. 

Once we had gathered all of our information, we then came back together to create our own Biodiversity Action Plan for OLSJ. We identified which wildlife and habitats we have plenty of around school, and which wildlife and habitats we couldn't see much evidence of around school. We then created an action plan of how we could improve our biodiversity around school through creating more habitats to attract more wildlife around our school. One area we all noticed was that we do not that many insects, slugs or snails around school; we decided that in our next Forest School session, we will create insect homes for these creates to live in. 

Here are some images of our Forest School session:
