xl exploring the woods

The S3 xl group are continuing their work towards their John Muir Award.  They recently did a litter pick of Roleys Wood, as part of the Conserve Challenge, and have been exploring the woods around the school using their senses.

Today we were looking at leaves and making art, inspired by the work of Andy Goldsworthy and the beautiful autumn colours.

Everyone also tasted the wild wood cordials we made last week from rosehips and elderberries collected within the school grounds. Good to drink hot cordial on a wet morning!
