I love grounds week because it is an opportunity to do intresting things outside. My most favourite thing that we did was orienteering. We went in the woods.

I love grounds week because it is full with fun and you can do lots of activities. I liked the part where we measured trees.

I really enjoyed sketching the trees. We went on the scooters for our marble treat. We really enjoyed orienteering we got to get the compasses.

We went in the woods, we went on the computers and we had a game of rounders.


Alice's Blog
I really liked grounds week because you got to play in the mud and normally read stories together and we all explored the scary forest for our learning and it was fun. We had lots of fun.

I really enjoyed grounds week we did lots of amazing things. We enjoyed measuring the circumference of the tree's and exploring the woods. We also sketched beautiful picture's of nature. It was awesome and brillent

I was really exitied to go to the woods and to use the compass and to find the clues. It was easy when we worked as a team.

Grace and Nikita's Blog
We have had so much fun during our great grounds week . I am so tired after our opportunity to sketch any living plant, measuring trees so we can find out thier age and orienteering was fun when we had to find the cards but it was a little tricky at the same time!









Whilst sketching we all enjoyed searching for plants of different types.Adding as much detail as possible was tricky but worth it as they were all absoutely amazing.Also they looked so realistic as we took our time.

We had so much fun during grounds week.

Vanessa's Blog
I really enjoyed grounds week especially when we were sketching the woods. Also I had a chance to work with a group for a whole week and we are really nicely sharing and having lots of fun. We used compasses and we had a task to put red fred in his bed! They really meant to put the red arrow between the 2 green lines for orienteering. We had a great time at grounds week. 

Grounds Week - Year R Bear Hunt

Robins and Bluebirds were very excited to go on a bear hunt in our school woods; during Grounds Week. Would you believe it we actually found a bear, living in the woods! The children listened to the story of 'We're Going on a Bear Hunt' in the morning and then started a walk through the woods, chanting "We're going on a bear hunt, we're going to catch a big one, what a beautiful day, we're not scared".

 We came across grass, long wavy grass. We couldn't go over it, we couldn't go under it, we had to go through it!

Then we came across a river, a cold deep river. We couldn't go over it, we couldn't go under it, we had to go through it!

 Next there was mud, thick, ozzy mud. We couldn't go over it, we couldn't go under it, we had to go through it!

After that there was a deep dark forest. We couldn't go over it, we couldn't go under it, we had to go through it!

And snow storm, a swirling, whirling snowstorm. We couldn't go over it, we couldn't go under it, we had to go through it!

Uh oh, a cave, a deep, dark cave! We couldn't go over it, we couldn't go under it, we had to go through it!

 One wet shiny nose, two big furry ears, two big goggly eyes! It was a bear! Ahh!

The children traveled back through the obstacles back to the classroom, but we weren't scared because the bear living in our woods was a kind, friendly, cuddly bear.

Grounds Week

Year three spent some time in the woods this week looking at leaves. We collected information about leaves and input the data into a computer programme. We sketched, painted and sculpted leaves and made a collage out of photos we had taken in the grounds.
