Rustic reindeer craft

 Just before we broke up for Christmas, the Year 3 and 4 classes in Forest School were set an Arts and Crafts task. They were given an assortment of pre-drilled Hazel sticks and shown how to assemble them to make a cute little rustic-looking reindeer.

It is a great opportunity to introduce the use of a few basic tools and many of the pupils jump at the chance.

It's an engaging task that some of the pupils find quite tricky but with a little encouragement and a few helpful pointers from staff, most of them persevered to come away with a charming memento for the festive season.

...And as always, someone has to cut some wood to keep the Forest School campfire burning.

Well done OD'O.
