Happy Chinese new year

Last Friday at Forest School we celebrated Chinese New Year. We whittle our own chopsticks, made a fire and tried Chinese noodles. We love it!

We thought we could make a fire by rubbing 2 sticks together.

We worked out that we need 22 chopsticks because we had 11 children and everyone needed 2.

We also tried Chinese prawn crackers

With sweet chilly sauce!

"Can I have seconds?"

We used the chopsticks we made to eat our noodles

" I need a table" May

We are sharing

Hannah and May decided to leave some suggestions for next time of things we could cook in the fire.

Can you read them?

"I will use a log as a table" Lilah

"It looks like spaghetti" Jaiyana

RS Forest school session- Ice, bird food, hot chocolate and the brown bear

We made some bird food for the birds in our garden

We used our new  mud kitchen to make the bird food

"Look what I found. Take a picture so I can make a poster" May

"I can ice skate" May

We had a picnic

" It is really yum" Daniel

"If you say you want one and you don't want one it is a waste" Gus

The children used warm soapy water to do the washing up at the end of the session

"I can do it myself" Hannah

"Do you want some warm milk Arley?" Hannah

" I made a sign that says:Lost and found

The lid from the chocolate powder was very popular

The children passed it around the circle

It smells like chocolate!

" I have this in my house" Lilah

We are going on a bear hunt
