About the Event
The pupils will get the opportunity to work in teams with pupils from other schools to build fires and back bread with garlic from the environment. They will also use leaf and twig identifiers to identify plants and trees in Castle Saunderson as part of our Biodiversity programme for the Green Schools. The children will work in teams to build shelters using items from the environment and participate in a nightline guided by their friends throug the forest. Each group will also participate in making mud faces on the trees and following a map in an orienteering event in Castle Saunderson. The event is funded by the Creative Clusters Programme and Windfarm Grants, for which we are extremely grateful for.
