4D/R have had a fantastic time visiting Thornley Woods. There were of interesting things to do and see. Here are some of 4D/R's thoughts on the day:
"I had a fab time with Sarah group leader from the woodland centre. I liked the discovery trail the best because it was most exciting and we had to use maps." (Rhys)
"I enjoyed the pond dipping because we got to catch lots of interesting pond creatures." (Erin)
"I liked the discovery trail because I enjoyed looking for the letters on the trees." (James)

Here are some photographs of our day.
In the morning we went pond dipping. We found lots of interesting creatures in our nets. We used magnifying glasses to have a closer look at them in white trays.

We found ramshorn snails and dragonfly nymphs.

In the afternoon we had a discovery trail, it was really fun and the children had to read maps in order to solve the puzzle.
