Forest School




I went to forest school for the first time today. Lucy, the forest ranger, had some elderflower twigs which had soft pith inside. She gave us a tool to get the pith out so that the twigs became hollow. Now ants can live in them - like ant hotels. I think it would be cool if there were lifts and stairs in the ant hotel. Me and my friends used the stump of an uprooted tree to build a den. We put lots of tall sticks against it to make a rabbit hutch. It even had a doorway in the side for a rabbit to get in and out.
