Year 2 at Peckwood

This week, Year 2 have been to their very first school residential. We went to the Peckwood centre, just outside Alvechurch for 2 days. Despite the forecast, the weather was mostly dry and we spent lots of time outside playing on the equipment, exploring the forest and using many of the skills we have learnt at Forest School this year.

We enjoyed playing together on the climbing frames and in the play area, especially using the fireman's pole!

We made a leprechaun land out of things we found around the forest. While we were in the forest, we did a treasure hunt and had to find items including something yellow, an elf's hat and a dragon's scale!

In the evening, we had a night walk with our torches. Mr Cross cooked us a delicious roast dinner and then we had hot chocolate, marshmallows and hot dogs around the campfire.

We used our typing skills to write about some of the things we enjoyed the most.

I liked roasting marshmallows and drinking hot chocolate. We had a dark, scary walk the fun part was rolling down the hill. Did you no we had a sleep over? With our sleeping bag. How much fun we had! We had a midnight feast with our chocolate.
