🌼 Another beautiful forest school at The Playtrail this week. 🍁🪾🍄🪺🍃🌾🪻
Special thanks again goes to Ciara and Rachael for organising, Ciara for facilitating, RAISE for funding this and to the families that keep on coming.
🌸 It's lovely to see generations of families, connecting with each other and joining in the activities, giving plenty of room for talking and playing together, rippling a shared sense of joy within themselves and each other.
🤱👱🧔👶🙋
💮 We even heard from a grandad how to make the best conker, ha ha.
"Put it in vinegar over night," he said. 😂
There's plenty of wee stories being shared every week, over a cuppa and a snack.
☕🥛🍪
Sure you couldn't beat it.
🏵️ The cutting cardboard machine was a big hit with everyone, empowering the children to be creative in their own little way. 💫💫💫

Words can't express our gratitude to Ciara and Rachael from The Playtrail for offering families another 6 week forest school, funded by RAISE.
As there was a huge waiting list for the last one, families who didn't get a chance to get into that one were offered a place on this one.
Ciara gave the families binoculars to explore the forest and there was plenty of room to stop, look, listen and to chat to each other about what they could see.

Wellbeing Wednesdays are back.
