I shared this Poppy idea a couple of years ago, and I know it was pretty popular, so here it is again.
All you need is an egg box, PVA glue, & paints. 🙂
*You could get more than one poppy out of each egg box if you attached them to a cardboard base. 👍

What a brilliant day @PedmoreCE kicking off with Forest church & discussing if we can trust nature; followed by an awesome day with Year 5 in the woods! So much creativity & the best leaf crown ever! @CofEWorcEduTeam @OutdoorEdChat
This week, I reflect on my practice & how we integrate the circle of life & how death is talked about. This is a great example of how it happens. Death of Hedgehog led chn to deliver their own funeral for him. So much holistic learning. @PedmoreCE @CofEWorcester @CofEWorcEduTeam

Did you know? 🌲 Children who spend more time outdoors develop stronger problem-solving skills and resilience! 💪 Discover the power of #ForestSchools! #ChildDevelopment #OutdoorLearning
The sense of community, belonging & feeling valued are are integral to all my sessions. Today was heartwarming moment watching chn @PedmoreCE flourish in that. Fire lighting, crumble made & cooked & I just sat back & watched. The best! @CofEWorcEduTeam

This picture speaks a 1000 words! Introducing meditation for the first time to preschool. The lovely girl showed deep
connection & concentration in listening to the natural sounds around her. Finding calm & developing her spirituality. @PedmoreCE @CofEWorcester @CofEWorcEduTeam
